Well, since all members of the amos-list were asked about it, I guess
you're talking about all of us - including yourself!  Well, it was me
who asked about the NDOS disks. I am going to tyr to make ny game
commercial and I thought maybe if I make it NDOS, it will take the
evaluating company just that bit longer to realize its written in
Amos. So, swivel on that one ;-)
[sorry I can't make this paragraph any longer  |-O ]

Anyway, I guess no one knows how to do it.....

Yes, I said that too!  Hey, man, just maybe the traffic was so light
over the weekend that I thought I would send a short, light-hearted
message to keep some interest alive.....

Now that wasn't me (I think..........)

I'm not interested.  I like the shut-up bit though!

Dont take my message too seriously - I'm just a bit pissed off at the
moment......:-(

I'll take the piss out of Easylife later......;-)
