It also reflects badly on the Amiga programming community as a whole.
Put it this way... M$ and PC owners can scoff - Outlook shows y2k no

I mentioned this is another post - I'm actually forming the opinion
that if NC2 is not upgraded to included a bug fix for Y2k in MDII then
I'll boycott NC3 and vapor products as a whole and not upgrade
(there's enough competion out there with YAM, AWeb, Ibrowse etc...)
