This is insane.  One of the biggest names at Commodore-Amiga is, once again,
making a nonsensical attack on one of the people who's demonstrating a
concern for the product above and beyond the call of duty.

What Mr. Barrett was >very clearly< saying was that the Macs do things the
Amiga doesn't do, and that Apple is demonstrably better at showing people
their strengths than Commie is.

Attacking someone personally, rather than refuting their arguments, is a
tactic that's been used to good effect by politicians, but you still LOSE
points for it in debating societies.
