   First check if it has any blitter at all ;-)   
   I think there were lists in the german chips&chips hypertext. Other than   
   that, you could probably just try if it is stable without the fix.   
      
   If you do not need access to the CPU pins to install some upgrade, just   
   leave it as it is.   
      
   If you do want to upgrade the machine, simply throw out both the fix and the   
   blitter. Optimized VDI code (like NVDI) is actually faster than the blitter,   
   so this is no real loss, especially if you install a CPU upgrade.

   None that I remember. Do you have problems with the machine?
