I am using Word Perfect to compose my articles and using NN to send/read usenet news. I seem to be having some problems though. Sometimes half of my message gets chopped off like the one above, (talk about a line eater, I have a page eater!) and sometimes the entire message gets eaten leaving only a .signature. So if you get some chopped up messages from me, I appologize and will try to correct it as soon as I can figure out what is going on. Most of the time it works, but sometimes....CHOMP! Anyway, I was saying in the last message: When ever someone points out that it would be a good idea for the Amiga to be able to override the ROMs and use a kickstart disk, someone will inevitably say "If the program didn't break the rules then it would work with the new kickstart". But the programs *dont* work with the new ROMs. It's too late to change that. -- The rest of the message made it thru, so you can read it there. -- John Sparks | D.I.S.K. 24hrs 1200bps.
