Yea, ABASIC no longer runs on my AMIGA (memory problem), numerous games no longer run, "popcli" in core in 1.2 often causes problems, etc… It is evident that CBM still hasn't worked the bugs they want to out yet because they haven't officially released 1.2 yet. Kind of makes you wonder what their design/software engineering tactics are…seems as though they are doing what most software houses do…"debug" quality back into their code "after" the fact!!! That makes for "bad" prototypes, and worse yet, "late" distribution. Oh well, our only hope is that someone listens to us, or CBM goes under and Atari or Apple or someone buys the AMIGA!!!! If not, there will be over 100,000 angry ophan owners in the world! Mike
