Well, like I've said in several posts, I might've missed something better, or I might be barking up the wrong tree, or I might (shudder!) be trying to gather as much information as possible before I even start to move to another platform. > Many of us are in the same boat as you but STill love our Atari computers > and will do anything to see them here in the years to come. Unlike > yourself if the tones of your previous poSTs are anything to go by. Hmm, so I'm not at all optimistic about Atari's chances of success... Your point? > So in conclusion, think not what Atari can do for Chris but what has > Chris done for Atari (BIG GRIN-) Hmm, check the FAQ for my name. Do a search on the GEnie file libraries for C.HERBORTH. I've also helped innumberable people find software/learn to use software/etc on their STs. For Atari, I've bought their system (and two monitors). For the developers, I've bought things from Timeworks DTP to MaxiFile III to Dungeon Master. It's amazing how easily some of the people here leap into defensive mode when you start to suggest that maybe, just _maybe_, there might be something better than Atari. Right now, I happen to think OS/2 might be it, and I'm trying to get as many first-hand opinions as possible. -- -------------------========================================------------------- Chris Herborth cherborth@semprini.tdkcs.waterloo.on.ca
