Another way to convince us of the serious nature of BAAUGFEST would be to refrain from slanderous and personal remarks in the future. Larry/LRO has never tried to screw Pete to the best of my knowledge (as well as PeteUs knowledge, to whom this is news...). Larry, at this time, is the only Apple II person out there at this time who is actively supporting the Apple II by spending large amounts of money on developing new products for that platform. Though he has ads in A+/Incider, that does not mean that he is some rich and slick Wall Street type who is raking in the bucks. He is not. Computer Sales is allowing him to support New Concepts which is currently developing several exciting new products for the Apple II line (for one of which, the Visionary Digitizing Card, I am proud to have been part of the development team). Naturally, those who have seen samples of the Allison software, are aware how exciting the softwares capabilities are. Without Larry, neither the Visionary nor Allison would be where they are today! In your apology, though, you persist: > LRO Computer Sales-I'm going by what I heard time and time over again. > I am not at Liberty to say exactly what I've heard, but it is a company > I plan NOT to purchase from. I'll leave it at that. So, you are telling us that you go solely by hearsay and that you refuse to discuss even what you heard. Yet, you accept that third party testimony as true, and you wonUt even make any attempt to verify the information. Your actions of slandering Larry and trying to hinder his business can only have one absolute intention: To turn people away from him and to get him out of business. Naturally, you realize that this is a strange thing to do for one who in the same breath stated his support for the Apple II world, donUt you think? In the future, I would appreciate it if you would either chose a less public medium for your mesages, or that you thouroughly verify your information before publication, or just have less to drink before accesing on-line services. > (Gosh, use one account and people jump all over you...)
