Mr. Anderson,

   While it *may* be valid to draw comparisons to producers such as MicroSoft 
and IBM, or even Supra, with missed release estimates, the *Neuron* comparison 
is patently unfair.

   We posted an announcement of intent to release some months ago, with a 
special pre-release offer. This was carefully labelled PRE-RELEASE.

   Unlike many others in the industry, we have not, and will not cash ANY 
orders prior to actual shipment.  We object strenuously to any *LIBELOUS* 
comparisons to Neuron.  We are in NO WAY connected to Dan Gittleman, nor
anyone in the infamous Neuron organization, and STRONGLY resent any
*LIBELOUS* statements indicating that we are.  The only thing we know about 
 Mr.Gittleman is that he has made our business a lot harder.

  We will not refused ANY cancellations.  What we WILL do, is continue, and 
ship as soon as we are satisfied with the quality of the product, and believe 
that our customers also will be satisfied.

As far as comparing our performance and business practices to Neuron,
we believe that if Neuron had taken no ones money, and held on to the
product until they were sure that it was right, as we have,
they wouldn't be infamous today.

   The short of it is this -- NO ONE'S MONEY HAS BEEN TAKEN.  NO ONE's CREDIT 
CARD HAS BEEN BILLED.  NO ONE's CHECK HAS BEEN CASHED.

  It is hard to develop quality software for the NeXT and make a profit.
We are not going to get rich off this driver, but hope to make a profit.
If you are going to spout out statements on the Net that could potentially
hurt a developer, you should DAMN WELL GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT and not spout 
out untrue statements as you obviously have.
