NewTek released the Toaster a couple of months late, not a couple of years. It was _leaked_ a couple of years ago, but was only _officially_ announced fairly recently. NewTek can't help what other people say. Many of us remember the "Laser Toaster" joke that NewTek circulated as a cover story for any leaks. Don't say bad things that have no basis in fact about a company that's done so much for the amiga. carson@close.cs.columbia.edu (preferred) | Carson Gaspar cag4@cunixa.cc.columbia.edu (forwards to above) | BIX: cgaspar
