(Turn in the VIC 20 anula and get a 3000 16/50 for 1800 dollars) Well,all I have to say is that I didn't mean to say that I was anti-amiga (which anyone on the local BBS's will tell you otherwise) just that I was very mad at CBM Exec's for pulling something like that on me. Ah, so you think CBM shouldn't have sales or price reductions? So, how many A2000s do you think they'd sell at the initial offering price of ~$1900? Well, anyways. 2.01 is not as compatible as I would like, but you developers should assume 2.01 before you go off saying things like OH it has to be 99% compatible. Well it isn'there in 2.01 land. No, they should assume 2.03, with a possible fallback to 2.02. If you're still running 2.01, you're running badly out-of-date software. You should be able to get 2.03 from your dealer. If you can't, you should contact CBM about your dealer.
