Well, they haven't killed XA but they may easily cost us tens of thousands of
dollars in US sales. About 100k folk read AmigaWorld. If 10,000 of them are
A1200 owners or about to be owners, and only half of them believe the
disinformation in AmigaWorld, that's 5000 potential customers deflected. Even
if only 10 percent of those would have bought an XA otherwise, that's 500 XA's
at some hundreds of dollars each. That's over 200,000 dollars in lost sales
because AmigaWorld was too busy filling their chart with erroneous
psuedofactoids to call us and clear up the problem *they* caused.
