Pay attention to both the context and the content of the message. I was responding to questions about ASDG products - do you expect me not to take advantage of such an opportunity? I stand behind my words, the SDP is the controller most capable of dealing with multiple devices and multiple accesses, and will provide the highest throughput possible through the new FFS. Next thing you'll be telling me that Commodore can't tell you on the net how to get 1.3 when it comes out! If you want to refute or balance my message with some useful information about another product go ahead. I've never heard any information from you before - I created this bloody group, and I keep up the quality of my postings - I don't fill the net with drivel messages like "me too", or "so and so sucks", and I intend it to stay that way. > 2) I've been hearing about sdp for a long time, but I haven't heard > that it's ever been seen.
