They did it two days running. I wrote a (typically) sarcastic letter about the entire situation, bringing in a number of good and relavant points. I sent it to the Senior Editor, and he suprised with a phone call !! It seems that he has an *Amiga* at home that his kids love and he finds useful... He asked for permission to reprint my letter, but never followed thru on it. It was quite a pointed letter, as I remember. -Jim Becker still Ex.
