Thanks for the thought, but I'm starting to have the same problem Jerry is
always complaining about, too many computers for the available space.  The
library would never have existed without the generosity of all the people
that wrote useful code and examples, and then released them to share with
the rest of us.  Perhaps we should hold a contest for "most prolific and
needy Amiga PD software author" and give him/her the new Amiga...
