User groups really helped people learn the Amiga back then. Even in Annapolis Maryland we had a fair sized, very active group.
I didn't remember that Rick Ross was on Fish Disk #1. He moved his company to Annapolis, and used to attend an occasional meeting with some of the other people from Discovery. Some talented and interesting people.
The very early Amiga days were extremely interesting, as new hardware and new software evolved. Great times!
