Well, actually, none of it was "uninformed".  You might think I don't have
the "whole story", but your use of the term is deragatory in this particular
case.  And the last name is Paschall-Zimbel, although the account name is
still the one before my recent marriage.

Yes, I was around on GEnie back in the good old days of 1986.  No, I don't
remember reading anything which was labelled "OFFICAL PROMISE" from Neil
Harris.  I sure hope you kept copies of each and every posting -- and if
you really want to be believed on this point, POST THE COPIES.  Same goes for
"Official Promises" made by any of the Tramiels in response to phone-in
questions -- if it isn't written up in a press release, with specs and
ordering information, it isn't "official" ... off-the-cuff remarks
notwithstanding.

If you believe that there were criminal actions worth looking into, quit
posting this drivel, take your evidence directly to the Attorney General of
the State of California and sit back fat and happy.  Otherwise, I'd suggest
you drop the term "scam".
