- I realise that! :) My memory was vaguly remembering the `given permission`,
- but a bit sqewed! Now I know for certain what was nagging at me :)) .
-
- As I have just written as a reply to the previous reply, does this mean that I
- can replace my CORRUPT 1.3 rom image with a working copy that is exactly the
- same? The outcome is the same as if my floppy disk hadn`t been corrupted! Or
- could you get picky on technical legal grounds?
-
- BTW: Was it Commodore or Commodore UK? I guess just plain money
- grabbing Commodore, as CU Amiga does go oversea in relatively small
- quantities.
