@adolescent,

Yes, it is too bad that there is still such bad blood between Chris and Elbox and everytime Chris attacks them, he hurts his own self, as no one wants to be included in the middle of their argument.  It would be better for Chris if he just forwarded his observations and test results to a friend and had them post the comments objectively and without emotion, for Chris.  That would serve his purpose without making him look so vindictive.

It is not about morals that I am concerned.  I was just stating my opinion that it would be in your better interest to have your attacks on Elbox come from another person, or ghost as it were.

Personal attacks are generally frowned upon and I know that you have been attacked in return by the fan-boys of Elbox in the past, but you have also been attacked, or at least disowned by other Amiga users who don't know, or understand the whole story, no matter how many times you tell it.

You are obviously free to take your own approach to this situation you find yourself in, as I am sure you don't want the advice of anyone else.

I have no such fan-boy alliance with anyone.

Well, I prefer not to hide behind anonymous nicks or fake accounts or post cracking instructions on mailing lists using anonymous proxies with fake email addresses. I do have my own attitude and I show it. I'm not as schizo as the Elbox press department. I don't have to please all people out there.

Aimee Mann once sang: "I've got love and anger, they come as a pair. You can take your chances, but buyer beware."

The more I think about it, the more I must admit I am very likely to react the same way, if I were in your shoes.  My initial reaction to any negative postings regarding Amiga and its related companies and people is always one of opposing the offending party.  Just my bad habit I guess.  Sorry for any disagreement with your actions and reasons.
