Kit,

With regards to the article in ANTIC that custom OS's such as the
OMNIMON can "severely damage" a hard drive, utterly absurd.  That kind
of irresponsible writing is a trademark of ANTIC and is one of the
reason I have not subscribed to their magazine for years.

In fact, if they had bothered to call me (as responsible journalists
should do who are fixing to make such damaging allegations) I would have
pointed out that OMNIMON itself can do no damage.  What can do damage
is improperly written software that makes illegal assumptions about
the operating system.
