- Hey Doc, You see it goes like this, those clowns who wrote those books
- are the guys that had those old XT systems back then are are still miffed at
- those Commodore users who had a better, faster, more colorful, and musical
- computer than they. So they are still bent upon revenge. I've seen the same
- books as well, I find it funny that they bypass the Commodore. I think that
- it really is intentional on their part.
