I thought it was a little bit funny at some of the nit picking marc barret did
in the post. so what if commodore has yet to make a high density drive for the
amiga, whoopeee. HD drives are just another ploy to make disk makers rich since
they charge so much for the HD disks compared to normal DSDD disks... and he
forgot that there is one being made. If it would have been such an important
product, why didnt a company like GVP or Supra make it? or is their R&D lagging
like C='s?

Why he mentioned commodore's pc clones is beyond me, all I can say is that C=
didnt start making clones until maybe 4 years ago, if my memory serves me 
right. And the laptop industry only recently started booming, with all sales
being messy dos machines <dont think the Mac laptop has sold well but it also
happens to weigh a ton>

time to hit K

How long does it take an IBM service rep to change a light bulb?
Depends on how many bad ones he brings with him.
