Postings with this heading a trailing off, thankfully....

Developers and users who are unhappy with Atari should realise that
all of the yelling in the world isn't going to make much difference.
GEM for the ST still is has the same problems it had when it was
first released (over two years ago). Many people have pointed out
problems, and a few have supplied work arounds. But nothing from Atari.

I strongly recommend that these people sell their machines, and buy
something from a company that will support their product. Quit wasting
your time and money.

Those who like their ST's, accept things as they are, and work from
there. I wish you the best of luck, really. The ST does have a few
strengths. It is a pity that Atari has failed to exploit them fully
(at least in the US).

Me? I had thought of buying a 520ST to run Magic Sac on and keep
my Amiga 2000 company. Now? No way, jose'.
