Looks like what I said a lonnnnnnng time ago about Gemulator was true. I said D.M. was making Gemulator basically to sell only to ex-ST users who wanted to throw away their ST and get a clone. He was providing one more incentive (as if *that* was needed :) ) to get a clone, because you could still use your ST software. Anyone who still thinks Gemulator is being made to convert millions of IBM worshippers over to the wonderful Atari software base needs some psychiatric care. He's doing it to hasten the Atari nosedive. For the record, I still like the ST (actually the STe) a lot, for several reasons, and have no wish for Atari to go under. Darek it seems definitely wants them to go under. -- ken@isgtec.com [ ...!uunet.ca!isgtec!ken ] Ken Newman
