This is NOT meant as a poke at John, it's just that his posting reminds me of what I've seen too often: When BYTE magazine either ignores or comments only "en passant" re: the Amiga, BYTE is perceived by the Amiga community as being lower than whale turds. When BYTE magazine publishes a noteworthy comment re: the Amiga, BYTE suddenly becomes "THE WORD, THE TRUTH, THE GUIDING LIGHT TO ALL KNOWLEDGE."
