- Provided, of course, that the quality of the grammar and spelling is
- befitting a press release from CBM. The language in the "AmigaStation 4200"
- document that was posted here a little while ago is a good example. I
- knew it was bunk by the second paragraph, and I'm sure a lot of other
- people knew it too.
-
- Guys, if you're gonna write rumors, at least get them spell/grammar checked!
-
- I know you're not supposed to flame people for grammar and spelling, but
- this is one case where not doing so completely spoils any effect the
- message may have, since it gives away where the message is NOT coming
- from.
