Erv, I guess we see these things a little differently. There are products for the Amiga that compete wquite well. C compilers are the best example. We have two quite high quality ones. Assemblers are the same. Many more examples can be found in the tool category… shells, disassemblers, debuggers, etc. I think that we do have a good product at a *Bsonable price in te M2 arena, and perhaps even 2 of them (I haven't seen M2Amiga yet, so I can't comment on how good/bad it is). To my mind, TDI has pushed shoddy goods on us, exactly as you have noted, probably because they think we'll put up with anything just to get a particular type of product. -larry
