	Okay, sorry, but this is just too much.  I've been reading this
newsgroup for about a month now, and it's true: from this end, the Amiga
owners look very mature and professional, as opposed to those lowlife
ST owners who now and then post something inflamatory over here....

	But Aha!  I own an ST, and for years, in the ST newsgroup, I've
been really p.o.'ed at those incredibly immature Amiga owners who would now
and then post something really inflamatory and arrogant over in the ST
newsgroup....

	The point is, statements like the above are simply uninformed, and
not at all well-thought-out.  Most Amiga owners, and most ST owners, are
generally reasonable and NOT as juvenile as the few who can't resist cross-
posting something before cooling down and doing some serious proofreading.

	P.S.  That "outrageous thing" mentioned above actually was demoed
at some conference or other, some time ago, so whoever told you about it
was neither lying nor misled.  It never made it to market, however (as far
as I know).
