There are the people who love the Amiga, consider it the greatest thing since sliced bread, spit on the Mac and IBM PC, and worship at the shrine of the original custom-chip tower. These are the most vocal defenders of the Amiga. They take cheap shots at other computers, basing their claims on rumors or hearsay. There are the people who purchased the Amiga, love it, but are worried that more powerful, faster machines are available, no matter what the price, and are always pissed off at Commodore for `falling behind'. These are the people behind most of the flames. Then there are the people who use the Amiga to quietly get work done. Usually softspoken, they simply choose the machine that suits them the best and don't get involved in competition over which machine is better. Confident, secure in their decision, they are the backbone of the group, providing the technical information and assistance that keep people reading. Where do you honestly see yourself? -tom
