Amiga users(?) storing their amigas up in the atic and replacing them with PCs!

Many have already told it quite well!

If you have never read it before, take the time to read An employee's reflection on how CBM killed the Amiga - written some time back by Ed Graner who was shamefully underpaid by CBM:

Unfortunately, many of the ones with Amiga skill and experience are also the ones who are willing to take the low pay, the lack of benefits and the constant lies from CBM. They are willing to only because they love the Amiga.They want to see it succeed. And conversely, Commodore has seen people like me put in 40-50 hour weeks and only turn in 30. They've seen the RPD put up with the lies and the discomfort of the position and their response is not one of gratitude, but one of contempt. And if one quits, then they know the Amiga is good enough to draw another enthusiast into the grinder to take that vacancy.

For those of us still working for Commodore, pity is in order. To those of you who are considering working for Commodore I have some advice: Just say NO to CBM.
