It has nothing to do with Blizzard or not, but wether the RAM is configured
in Zorro2-space (below 16mb) or above it.

RAM-cards without a owns CPU will allways fall in the 1st category,as
the 68EC20 used in the A1200 has only 24address-lines (~16mb).

Cards which allow more than 8mb will allways fall in the 2nd as the Z2-space
is only 8mb wide.

Cards with own CPU but a max RAM of <=8mb may fall in both. Perfect
exmaple is the "Blizzard-turbo-mem" with a 68020 (or was that an EC ??)
at 28mhz.
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else
