If Marc understood more about hardware, software, and Commodore's marketing goals, he'd be able to provide constructive criticism. Since he doesn't, what we get are periodic postings from him complaining that, in some ways, the Amiga is no longer better than the IBM PC clones. I'm fairly sure that Commodore has its reasons for working on the projects that their current projects, and no amount of posting from him will change Commodore's priorities. -- bruce@zuhause.mn.org
