The Amiga conferences _force_ them to notice the amiga exists and has a VERY good following among technically oriented people - we're the biggest set of conferences on BIX. If BIX amiga use dwindles, they'll assume no one is interested in the Amiga. Plus BIX is announcing pretty good flat-rate policies. Those of us on BIX keep them on their toes, or at least try (some few of us can get over-excited at times.) Needless to say, the problems with the article have been pointed out by a number of people to Fred Langa. -- Randell Jesup, Commodore Engineering {uunet|rutgers|allegra}!cbmvax!jesup
