The first time, they were advertising that they stand behind the Amiga. I argued with my boss one time that they weren't doing much for the machine by porting C64 stuff to it. They would fund a PC original for years, but wouldn't do anything custom for the Amiga beyond Return from Atlantis and DPaint. They stand so far behind the Amiga that you can see them as a dot on the horizon :) -- ******************************************************** * Appendix A of the Amiga Hardware Manual tells you * * everything you need to know to take full advantage * * of the power of the Amiga.
