- I think there are 2 others... A56 (up to v1.2) which seems OK to me, but
- then I dont know much about it... There is also another one (the one that
- Magnus mentions) called Q-DSP (Quick...) and is written by Giles Audoly
- (sp?) the author of MoonSpeeder....

- Yes, it does seem a shame... I personally cannot see Atari (or JTS's games
- division, or whatever) caring about us at all. However, if they see a
- way of makeing money out of people (ie sueing them!) then I expect they
- would...
-
- I dont want to advocate piracy, but I think that if someone is going to
- produce programs for the Falcon, then I can only see good coming out of
- it being distributed...

- (oh no, look out for the flames...)

- Talking of sources... someone said the towers 2 sources were available
- but I couldn't see them on CNAM, so where were they (directory please)...
- (just curious)

-
- :-) Yes, I would guess that a C-programmed DSP is probably better than no DSP
- use at all...
