Well picked up my copy this morning on the way to work, sat down at tea
break to read it. When I got to the article by Chris and thought this isn't
the Chris we know and love. The only explanation that I can think of was
either this was a FAKE AA13 or them ppl from one of the windoze mags had
snuck into the offices one night and changed the article in question. Must
be the former as I can't see that any PC freak would be capable of changing
a file on an amiga after all to do that does require some knowledge of the
directory structure besides which our guys would have caught them in the
morning (They would have spent the rest of the night looking for the
Shutdown Button).

Forget the Klingons off the starboard bow,
the efing BORG are behind us.

Software suppliers are trying to make their software packages more
'user-friendly'.... Their best approach, so far, has been to take all
the old brochures, and stamp the words, 'user-friendly' on the cover.
