- I KNEW when I posted that message that I should have clarified that point.
- My first impulse after posting it was to cancel the message and re-post it,
- but then I thought that most intelligent life forms would understand my
- meaning. I should have paid more attention to my first impulse.

- Anyway, I was talking about the developers of DataTax, DataMax I think was
- their name. The no longer publish Amiga software, and have explicity stated
- why. They feel that the Amiga market in the U.S. not nearly strong enough to
- support a good tax perparation program. Anyway, DataMax is the ex-Amiga-
- developing company that I referred to. I was not referring to myself.
