When the person in question told me what he was using, it was not the item I was thinking of and I told him so. Period. And as to CLtd products, I've spent enough time telling Ed very directly when I find problems in his products, and he generally fixes those problems and listens to my comments. And you are the one who always leaps to the defense of CBM products, especially the holy 2090(a), quick to overlook its features/problems when overlooking them suits you. With about as big a holier then thou attitude and an ability for putting people down as I've ever seen. Unlike you, I am generally willing to admit that I don't know something, or that I've made a mistake. There are some areas I don't claim any real knowledge, such as programming the Amiga (though I do consider myself a good programmer). I admit that I sometimes offer my opinion a bit quickly, yet I think I have some degree of ability to cut thru the bull and do a fairly good and impartial evaluation of something regardless of personal prejudices or loyalties. And if I sometimes make some decisions that people don't like, such as not announcing what device and maker in this case, so be it. My best judgement is the way I go. Ron
