I'm only posting because I fear my integrity is at stake. I don't understand why so many people on this net are so McCarthy-like. Just because a person asks a question, they are pirates. I don't advocate piracy, and pirates deserve all wrath of the law enforcement agencies they receive. I asked a (seemingly) valid question. I misunderstood the A.W. article I read. I thought I only needed the A-max roms if using the mac drive. I found out that this is not true. I have since erased the diskand plan to borrow the entire package. For those of you who don't believe me (and I know some don't...) I don't really care. I don't want to start a flame war. God knows there are enough of them here already. All I am saying is give a person some breathing room. Just because a guy doesn't know what ECM stands for in FA/18 doesn't mean he is a pirate. Maybe he is, either way, keep it to yourself. A pirate takes risks. Let him. There is no reason for you to be his conscience. I'm sorry to have to post this, but I was really getting sick of all the talk about lynching pirates. P.S. This is just for the jerk who flamed me through e-mail: 1) Thanks for responding e-mail. Doesn't clutter up the net. 2) I apologized publicly, but that wasn't good enough for you. I was p*ssed and acted on an e The apology still stands - I would have e-m'ed you, but I lost your address. Look, I'm too old for flames, (I'm 20 ya know!) but if you feel the need, refer to the addresses below. ------------------------------------------------------------- ***************************************************** * | //// "If it's not an * * Andy Hartman | //// Amiga... to * * Indiana University | \\\X/// hell with it!" * * | \XXX/ * *---------------------------------------------------* * AMHARTMA@rose.ucs.indiana.edu * * sl195091@silver.ucs.indiana.edu * *****************************************************
