I will boycott H&P (BTW boycotts are ALWAYS legal.  There is no such animal as an "Illegal" boycott.  As long as people are free to choose to buy a product, they will be free to choose to NOT buy that product.  Right?)

However, I don't think that boycotting Compuquick or S.Hut is a positive step.  Surely if we all successfully boycott H&P products, the problem will take care of itself:  The distributers will stop carying them.

Boycotts, like all protests, however, cause damage.  Boycotting the last few Amiga distributors seems like too much damage, to me.  Buying AMINET SET XXVII from Software Hut does not help to support H&P, but does help support the "good guys".

So, yeah, e-mail the distributors with your concerns, boycott H&P products, but DON'T shoot the bystanders.


I agree with you! It isn't the vendors fault that they are caught up in the cross fire. All that needs to happen is a complete boycot of H&P products. If you don't agree with a vendor selling Amithlon, fine don't buy it! But there is no reason to boycot the vendor because if it, otherwise you will just put them out of buisness, and that does no good for anyone.
