To me it makes it less readable, I always fins myself pausing haflfway through
the article to read them. It was ok in Richard's X Rant, but damn annoying on
the BoXeR and upgrade features.
The St. Louis Facts and Rumours, is it me or would it have been a better idea
to tell us which were facts and which were rumours?
Also, I wsn't aware of a Fast IDE interface for the Clockport? And why did the
Zorro2 only get a "." but The Z4 board got a tick for the Fast IDE bit?
Just where is Kitty's tattoo?
The ScanQuix 5 review, I thought I was reading a feature on Scanning, not a
review for ScanQuix5. I thought you were being ignorant of ScanTrax (great
shareware btw) until I looked at the top of the page. I'm not saying I didn't
like the review, it just seemed out of place.
Maybe next month we can have a round-up/comparison of the shareware scanner
drivers available?
Carpe Diem,
Mike O'Hara
