John, why MM100 when the Amiga version is up to MM300? Paul (aka Mr. Zombie)

Paul, >Why MM100 when the Amiga version is up to MM300? The official answer is that MM100 is the first version for the MS-DOS platform. Hence, MM300 is the third version for the Amiga platform. Regards, John Chang

John- Reasonable enough. Clone-heads won't know the first thing about the Amiga anyway, so I doubt you'll get very many complaints are confused shmucks calling. Paul (aka Mr. Zombie)

Paul, >I doubt you'll get very many complaints are confused shmucks calling. I dunno about that. ;-} Remember, the scenario is that as soon as you type in "Scala", you're launching MM100 and then working with our GUI. There will be few similarities to Windows, with the possible exception of the file requester. Indeed, our GUI will be different, but probably easier to learn than an equivalent Windows based multimedia authoring or presentation system. Regards, John Chang

John- Oh, about confused shmucks I just meant about the inconsistant version numbering, as per Amiga version features versus Windoze version features. I have no doubt though that your tech support department will grow and grow like cancer as far as you let it. Paul (aka Mr. Zombie)
