Leon, I'd like to take the time to make an apology, a serious one. I'm
afraid you got things the wrong way. First, Martin has nothing to do with
my remarks. Second, I'm not upset at your actions as such. I understand
you are a business man, and as such, you are out to make money. I do know
however that M2S screwed up the marketing of a good competitor. You know
very well that the compiler was greatly enhanced by Martin, and that the
Benchmark compiler has surely profitted from your transactions. That is
fine. However, I feel upset at the thought that purchasers good stood up
and that a good product went under. Have you considered making a special
deal for M2Sprint owners? No only would this ease the situation but it
would improve your (and Modula-2 in the Amiga market) image. Just a
suggestion. Please, I'd like to stay on good terms. I'm not throwing
"anything" around. Just making comments on something that touched me
closer than other people. Forgive me if it was taken in any way other than
a comment on business in general, and this case in particular. Robert
