- I posted that message w/o realizing I messed up the "Subject :" line.
- I didn't get any replies from the LinkIt e-mail address nor from the
- newsgroup. The co. in question had full page ads in Amazing Amiga for
- a number of months so I supposed that someone else out there in Amiga-
- land bought this thing.
- So here with that slight correction in the hope someone will answer.
