What prompted you to send this, when in all of Macdom there are many, many,
many, many folks who know of the problems with this version of Mode 32?
How could you think you spoke for ME, a member of The Low End Mac Compact
Mac List community?!?!
The arrogance is astounding, Mark.
When I went to the site a few moments prior to writing this email, Mode 32
was still there.
PLEASE.....DO NOTHING to rectify this. Allow us to continue to make our own
mistakes, and don't assume the role of protector to me, OK?
I've learned more from my own mistakes than I ever would from being told not
to do something.
