Who's this Mitch character? And what does golf swings have to do with
anything?
I vaguely recall something dealing with parity (but that was probably 12
years ago as well, and I wasn't all that young back then and my memory
isn't getting any better). I was going to try to find my ACB4000 manual,
but forgot to see if it was in my office somewhere. It does look like I
never enabled parity checking in my NetBSD/amiga driver. Now if I can
just remember what I called the AmigaDOS driver and where I might have
left it...
