Believe it or not I wasn't trying to bash Antic. I realize it probably looked
like that, and so I'm going to make a brief posting to (maybe) clear it up.
It was more like: "See even companies that originally were very dedicated
to the Atari ST are being forced to move on and expand their horizons..."
I sincerely have absolutely no problem with Antic Software's move away
from 100% Atari software. I think it's a perfectly reasonable thing to
do. But at the same time I think it makes a pretty strong statement
about Atari's position in the marketplace.
I'm sorry about the way the message appeared to bash Antic Software. I
didn't mean it that way.
