- I am puzzled by the supply situation with RISC OS 3.10. I don't see why
- posting about such things should lead to insults being posted.
-
- The RISC OS 3.10 ROMS must have been produced in bulk, since they had to
- come all the way from Japan. Acorn has long spoken of "market saturation"
- with the product, and has also spoken of "massive demand" being expected.
-
- Why then have certain dealers not received any upgrades at all? Why the
- shortage? I don't understand why I should be criticised for saying this,
- or why I am criticised by *one person* (Merlyn Kline) for recommending
- that people check out RISC OS 3.10 before buying it for ordinary ARM2
- machines.
