I've been taking a bit of flak from some Apollo folks who think I'm
a meanspirited malicious dweeb. Let me clarify some things:
1) I love Apollo and Apollo computers. They are my absolute favorite
Need I say anything more on this ?
2) What I say is WHAT I SAY, and should in no way reflect on
Danford Corp., my current employer. If you think I'm a
jerk, fine, I can live with that. But dont let that stop
you from placing that P.O. for 400 SEU's. :-)
3) When I talk about 9.5 trashing disks, I'm deadly serious,
as this loses mass quantities of potentially valuable
data. When I talk about ADUS sig groups throwing sticks
and spears at Apollo reps for non-delivery or promised
items, take it with a BIG grain of salt. We all have lunch
together afterwords. Wer'e still friends. Honest. Really.
4) So, if i post something and is really irks you, you are not
seeing the implied :-)'s. I'm a nice guy, really. A bit
strange perhaps, with a pretty twisted sense of humor....
5) Dont take life (and the net) so seriously. To borrow
a quote from soc.women: "Lighten up, girls".
6) I get flamed in comp.sys.amiga for all my "this should be
more like the way Apollo does it" statements. Sheesh.
Sometimes a guy just cant win.
In all deference, I've also heard an equal number of "gee, I like your
stuff on USENET" comments. I just wanted to post this to clear up
any misconception this I dont hold Apollo, or its computers in
highest regard.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled newsgroup....
