- I am sorry Mr. Chang for my myopic view of Scala and the Amiga. Don't
- get me wrong. I enjoy Scala and think that it is a wonderful program. I
- really don't like using PC's, but as we know, the world doen't run on
- Amiga's. Watching all the Amiga developers disappear over the last 9yrs
- (for me) is not positive. I have an Opalvision board that served me
- well, but no modules. I also bought it because a Scala rep told me at
- the last WOA in NY, that it would be supported. Nothing. Now, MM400
- will be the last upgrade for the Amiga as we know it. With Viscorp in
- the picture now, who knows what will happen. Scala is in the business
- to make money. I have no problem with that at all. But that still
- doesn't change the way I feel about being someone that has supported
- Scala and now will be basically abandoned.
