I can't agree more. I try to figure out if games or programs are designed for the //e or the IIgs, and I'm usually right, but I'm not as good as I'd like to be. It can be especially infuriating to spend a large amount of time downloading a file (some of us are still at 1200) only to find that there's no way, other than buying another computer, to use it. C'mon, people, let's identify our software with the machines they can be used on.

And if you upload something for the IIgs, please state how much memory the program requires. Some of us (guess who?) don't have 1.25MB and can't see neat programs like Nucleus or Photonix.
