- Paul I noticed that you had to intoduce the term "modern". My A2000 is 8
- years old and it'll kick any 8 year old Mac's ass. Also, Naveen Rao was
- saying that "there's not much software left" i.e. "Amiga owners are riding
- a dead horse" ......again denoting that this conversation pertained to the
- "old age" of the Amiga system. If your going to jump into a conversation,
- it would be nice if you tried your best to remain "in-context".

- All you've shown me Paul is that you seem to be equally ignorant concerning
- Amigas and Macs. Maybe you sould move on to PC's where you would fit
- right in. Also, I don't give a shit what your sig says' or if you check
- mine. If somebody is telling the truth concerning the subject at hand,
- in a mature fashion, in most cases they won't get flamed. It's jerk-offs
- like you and Naveen that get their asses scorched for coming around and
- and foaming at the mouth, not having a clue about whatever it is you're
- trying say. I'm not a "flamer" by nature, but if you're going to be
- ignorant enough to try and feed me a pile of doo doo, I'm gonna' light my
- torch.
