Ok, that does it!  I am tired of these wide generalizations that
implicate everyone on this newsgroup.  I bought AW5 and
a RamGS from Sequential.  I DO appreciate development...
so does that just mean I'm going to roll over take shit from
Nathan Mates?  For the last time, I was flamed by that idiot
and I am NOT a pirate.  He stepped over the line and lost my
respect.  Am I a big Dr. Tom fan?  No.  Does that make me a
big Nathan Mates fan?  No.

I appreciate the efforts of good programmers like Randy
Brandt who extended the life of the A2 with AppleWorks 5
just as much as the next person.  Why does he have my
utmost respect?  He does not expect us to kiss his ass
because he programmed AW5.  Nathan Mates...I don't
care if he programs an AI for the GS, if he acts like an
asshole, I won't respect him and I won't have any of his
software on my GS either (I am not a pirate, so I don't
steal...and I won't buy any of his software because he has
flamed me without reason many times).
