[scorching flame of innocent remarks deleted]

Well, Mr. Mark F. Newton John, I rather appreciated Barry's comments.  The
purpose of this newsgroup is to provide useful information to current Atari
ST users, and others who have a passing interest, not to provide an
advertising channel for Atari Corp.  As an ST'er who has been considering
dumping Atari for Amagi for a while, I find Barry's remarks useful and
in that sense, perfectly appropriate.  And my interest in Amiga is strictly
mine, quite apart from what you may or may not deem suitable.

If you want to aim Fire and Brimstone at people, that is your right ... but
be aware of a danger.  My impression of messages from Mark F. Newton John
(a name which sticks in the mind :-)  will be unavoidably biased by the
brutal and (IMHO) needless attack I have just witnessed.

Cheers,
