I must say I agree, but one of the SAM's great appeals is that it is so
modifyable, and people want to tinker with it. I don't think what has
been going on in these pages has anything to do with the production of a
"SAM Coupe Turbo XR3i", but rather what people are doing with their
computers. Some people play games with their computers. Others program
wallpaper databases ;-) Still others rip the SAM's heart out, and wonder
what they can replace it with. It's just another use for our computer.
The experiments going on with enhancing the SAM can only be a
good thing in developing the expertise we have in the user base,
provided the other users don't feel left out.
Sorry to get on my high horse!
