2.0 Known problems
==================
    o Joystick control 'absolut' is unstable.----------------------------------
       The physical joystick hardware is implemented very cheap in the most
       cases. Soundeffects for example may move the racket a little bit
       randomly.
    o The game seems to pause sometimes with heavy action.---------------------
       Some sound drivers use very much time to stop Sound. If you have one
       of these, you may disable sound effects.
    o No second mouse support with Windows NT.
    o Window to small (some graphics are cut off)? Try a smaller system font!
    o The 32 Bit Version of Winbrick96 did not run with Windows 32s
       (extension to Windows 3.x)!
