I just plowed thru this string. The R-Man is always a topic that can provoke everyone! 🙂 I generally enjoy him, though I sometimes dis- agree with his opinion or his expression thereof. BUT, I can say fer shure that the way he is mischaracterized, misquoted and misrepresent- ed by most journalists and medianoids shows that they know less about what's going on than he does-by far! To answer the re-occuring question: I think this string got started after Rush was talking about his lack of excitment over Windoze '95. He mentioned how the Mac had multi-tasking, long file names, etc. & probably mentioned the Amiga in passing as another computer that had these things before PCs. He was getting irate letters from stuck PC owners! He is a Mac partisan supreme, and I would wonder how some would take his promoting of the Amiga! It would definately sell, but in this country, the new models would at least have to run MAC, if not windoze platforms to really catch on. 🙁 Rush can be ;heard daily throughout the world on WNOR shortwave. (BTW the "FAIR" report, so I hear, got much of it's publicity from that other becon of objectivity, Doonesbury, which, BTW, is actually funny this week as it rags on Windows '95 too) LS
