I agree too.  Nicely put!  Chris offered a fine service for most Amiga users
to get onto the Internet, both as newbies and as experienced users.  I can't
help but feel that he got battered a bit on this list, probably more through
the ignorance of people who hadn't quite realised the moral effort required
to stand by the Amiga when there were other more profitable platforms out
there.

If NC3 is the end of an era, then so is Active Software.  Chris did a
_great_ job in getting us where we are today.
