Don, Fine–call me sensitive, it is really a small point anyway. Ok, so if you are not talking about 'all' dealers and you are talking about Chris's dealer, that is fine. I can run with that one. Lets address you, a SysOp of CIS, talking about Chris's dealer. I am sensitive to those who wish to bash dealers in a public forum, without having known them or done business with them. Chris's dealer may not be the greatest then again, who knows? I think you owe that company the decency to keep your comments about their livelyhood to email. Certainly you *may* have influenced Chris to never visit his dealer again, and if he buys your reasoning then he may influence another customer not to go there, on and on. If Chris's dealer was here to defend himself that would be one thing. It is another to offer to sell a bridge to someone who believes anything that Chris's dealer says. I guess it is fortunate that Chris's dealer doesn't have a name at this point. Of course that is just my opinion. In retrospect, it was probably better when I thought that you were talking about all dealers. That way I could find resolve in the fact that you are just talking out of the side of your mouth, talking the standard party line. Ya know the one, bash the dealer and then bash Commodore. Perhaps your sensitivity would go up if you tried to make your living selling these machines. Perhaps if you stood behind the couner for a week you might learn how things that are said, can be accidently twisted and what was truth suddenly becomes a lie–just because a customer did not listen. It may seem to you that I am making a big scene out of nothing, perhaps I am. It is just that I have the basic opinion that SysOps are the people who set the standards around here. -mark=
