- Don''t you listen to anything anyone says? The CV64 (the only card I have
- has experince with) does just that. The whole purpose of the DEVS:monitors
- directory is to do just that. You install a new monitor driver, it will
- support it. This may sound like a dream for a PC user, but it is reality on
- the Amiga.

- In what way is he not following the thread? You just make statements you
- know nothing about, and when asked to back them up, you change the subject.
- You may feel like this is a good way to go about brainwashing people, but it
- just pisses us off. If you want to start with "following the thread" I'll
- go back two weeks and provide you with all the statements that are either:
- a) Incorrect (most of them) or b) Not backed up with any facts when asked to
- provide some. There are usually at least two in each message.
