Don't bother.  I have absolutely no respect for Jerry Pournelle's opinion.
Do you really expect JP to sing Amiga praises in PC/Mac-only rags like Byte,
InfoWorld, and wherever else he send his drivel?  I see no reason to send
him stuff just to stroke his ego.  If he calls the Amiga junk because he
doesn't get enough free stuff, then screw him.  Commodore should send the
goodies to Matt, or Leo, or Fred.
