Ye gods!  PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!

Newsgroup comp.sys.amiga.marketplace is NOT the place to rant and rave
about Commodore management/policies, not even their MARKETING policies
and management; please restrict drivel like the quoted posting to
c.s.a.advocacy ONLY. If you followed that up in .marketplace, go back
NOW and CANCEL your followup and put it where it belongs.

Group c.s.a.marketplace is for wanted and for sale postings, discussions
on product availability and price, and similar EXTREMELY non-controversial
topics ONLY!

Grrrr!
