All right, how's this:
It would be silly for Commodore not to continue to release OS upgrades
on Kickstart because
a) 170,000 computer owners is nothing to sneeze at,
b) it takes little effort to release a Kickstart disk at the same
   time as a Kickstart rom
c) When we charge a reasonable fee so we don't lose money, the
   accountants in the company don't look at us funny
d) you could always put the rom image onto a diskette

Feel better ?
