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! /s/ Your UN-friendly e-neighborhood curmudgeon, /// It's Amiga /// for me: why Kent, the man from xanth. \\\/// settle for <xanthian@Zorch.SF-Bay.ORG> <xanthian@well.sf.ca.us> \XX/ anything less? -- Convener, COMPLETED comp.sys.amiga grand reorganization.

While it is just roomer (and most likely in-correct), I don't think they were
that bad that they deserved what looks to me like a flame.
