Get real. The Amigan is a clearinghouse for developers to communicate technical information amongst themselves, and it has some really good people writing for it regularly, including John Toebes of Lattice and the Software Distillery and Bill Hawes of AREXX and ConMan fame. Dick Barnes, the editor, does a fantastic job and DOES NOT do it for the money. Believe me, there are easier ways of making the money. I consider the Amigan to be my BEST source of technical information on the Amiga, in spite of the fact that the authors are not paid. This newsgroup (or comp.amiga.tech) can be a good source of technical info, too, but nobody gets paid for posting it. Why don't you quit being so damn mercenary and concentrate on getting things DONE?
