I'm probably going to start a war but can you stop shouting please, I
nearly went deaf (well blind I suppose) reading this message. I know
it's frustrating at times but keep a lid on it. If you want a Classic
that runs stuff buy a Classic II, although I don't promise it'll be all
that fast in comparison it packs a 16MHz '030 and so will run lots of
stuff.....slowly.
