*** Does your site have a line eater? ***

1) Speaking of Piracy...

I went into my local Amiga dealer recently to see what new software had come
out. I noticed that the price of Deluxe Paint had been raised to $99.95. (I
paid $69.95 for mine from the same dealer. When I looked closer, I noted
that EA now includes a free  FREE!! backup disk with the product.

Now you know what tempts people to pirate from kindly folks like EA.
(By the way, I like EA products, I just think they are about 40% overpriced.)


2) A note to the person complaining about the Arctic Fox's erratic turning:
I believe that the terrain type you are on will greatly affect turning
performance. I believe this is known as a "feature".

3) I am not a developer, so I don't have ROM Manuals. Can anyone tell me
how to change the color of text from inside a C program. (Lattice 3.03)

4) I noticed that Lattice now has a 3.03B C compiler, can anyone tell me
what the upgrade policy is for non-developers? In particular how much
$$$ will I need to pay?
