hmmmm...  with a piss-ant attitude like THIS, i certainly won't be
heart-broken if he went Mac-only.  it's a shame that a good programmer
decides that everything has to boil down to money...  i wonder if
he'll get any kickbacks from Delphi from promoting them?

since i still have a "pure" copy of System 6.0.x (ie one that hasn't
been patched with GUPP or anything similar), i won't miss it.  at this
rate, all i really need is a communications program (which i have: a
copy of SnowTerm, REGISTERED, if you must know, Nathan!) and a serial
port...

i'm a strange sort; if a programmer has a crappy attitude, i couldn't
care LESS how good his programs are.  i won't use 'em.  i'll find
something else or another way to do something.
