- Michael,
-
- We appericate the hard work that you and SoftLogic have put into
- PageStream. We also thank SoftLogic for sticking with the Amiga Users
- (after all its the users rather than the machine that matters) in
- difficult times. I have moved from PageStream 2.2 to 3.0h2 and find it
- very userfull. I have not looked at it as what it was supposed to do
- rather what it can do. And am pleased about its performance and that
- it is available.
-
- I would like all SoftLogic Customers to make finiancial contributions
- to SoftLogic by purchasing add-ons. That way SoftLogic can recieve
- extra income in these diffcult times.
-
- Many thanks for a wonderful product...
