Yes, the San Jose Mercury News has hit a new low with there biased
narrow-mined slant towards IBM clones and particularly Apple.

When I read the title of the article I expected the Amiga to be shown as the
industry price leader in this field of "Desktop Video" but they think desktop
video is mainly slides for presentations ????

Have these guys been licking the light sockets or what ????

My letter is on it's way to to the San Jose Mercury News and so should
everyone elses. Somebody call Commodore!! It's no wonder the Amiga is the
lost child of computers. Let these bozos know that there is a THIRD
ALTERNATIVE!
