I ran F-19 on my friends A2000 (WB 1.3) and I was able to create and save
pilots without any problems.  But when I went home and booted up on my A500
with WB 1.2, the pilots were gone!   F-19 is suppose to run with WB 1.2 or
higher, but perhaps it's not 1.2 compatible.  The only other think I can think
of is that my 2 meg SIN-500 board is somehow screwing it up.

I called MicroProse up (for the fifth time) and I'm don't think they know very
much about their own software.  They insisted that F-19 only supports one
drive, but I used both on my friends 2000.  They also couldn't tell me for
certain that it would run with WB 1.2.  They said they would look into.  And 
with regards to saving directly onto disk A like the tech supplement says is now
doable, MicroHose said it doesn't work and to ignor the supplement.

Instead of bad mouthing great games like Lemmings, how about bad mouthing the 
beta versions like F-19 and Powermonger being sold.
