The Amiga's low-level hardware control functions are collectively referred
to as "Resources".  Most applications will never need to use the
hardware at the resource level - the Amiga's device interface is much more
convenient and provides for multitasking.  However, some high performance
applications, such as MIDI time stamping, may require direct access to the
Amiga hardware registers.
