Nobody should be surprised that when Mark Choi pointed out the highly un-competitive construction of the upcoming ST notebook machine, some brainless sycophants would crawl out from under whatever rocks they inhabit to yell "How DARE you criticize our god". It's particularly offensive, however, to see boneheads like Bob Bright attempt first to invalidate Mr. Choi's well-deserved criticism with some minute discrepancy concerning the machine's weight, and then ask for an apology in the same paragraph that he favours us with another brilliant profanity. Where do these people come from? Does Atari pay them? If so, couldn't they afford to hire more intelligent people? If TRH is any indication, apparently not. Bob has failed to respond to my post concerning the Dell laptop, one of which I am in posession of. Why did he ignore this? Quite simply, because it completely invalidates his make-believe picture of the competition in this market. People like Bob are annoying not only because I have to add them to my /kill file in an effort to upgrade the calibre of incoming news, but because they spread false information and therefore contribute to the demise of a company many of us have genuine concern for. Give it up, Bob. You're a fool, but you don't have to advertise it. !! \ __ __ __ ____ __ _ ___ !!

Yup, and I'm not surprised to find that you, my Darling, also think you know enough to write briliant, insightful postings about a product that doesn't exist yet. How about participating in some useful discussions instead of acting like a brainless anti-sycophant? Or perhaps we could revive the Atari/Amiga flamewar for a few months so we could all seek out a rock or two to hide under. Followups to misc.test.
