Thanks to all those who responded to my request for advice and comparisons of the Amiga and Atari-ST. I received much useful and constructive information and opinion, and with little if any hint of evangelical fervour (only one person actually objected to me posting the request in the first place!). It's certainly provided me with enough to make a decision, although I think that political expediency prohibits me from discussing any decision in public :-) I gather from some replies that com.sys.amiga has been reorganised - for some reason the control messages have never reached my site, all I have is comp.sys.amiga. I therefore apologise if this message (as with the original) is in the wrong group. Thanks again -- Rick Jones Tetra Ltd.

He didn't start the flame war, it was the people who didn't know how to restrict their responses to e-mail, or at least their own news groups. Let's all grow up and calm down. >-- > _. >--Steve ._||__ DISCLAIMER: All opinions are my own. > Warren v\ *| ---------------------------------------------- > V {uunet,sun}!convex!swarren; swarren@convex.com ********************************************************************** Jonathan Whitcomb UUCP: <...!mcnc!aurgate!whitcomb> (919) 850-6231 I'm not a software engineer, Raleigh, NC but I play one on TV.
