You make some good points.

I hope someone from Amiga Inc is following this. They are currently working
on the new website and they should set up a good technical support area for
things like this. I said should.. I dunno if they plan on it or not. Sounds
like a good idea to me. As for the OS, they should have an easy way to
request copies of your lost or defective WB disks online. Anyone from Amiga
Inc present on the list?
