  This is my first cross-posting to both these groups.   The reason for

this posting is because I'm (and a lot other people) sick and tired of
all those 'My PC is better than Yours' postings that have surfaced on
both groups (comp.sys.amiga & comp.sys.atari.st).

  I like to ask everyone to stop this nonsense.  Please, before you post,
read through you article.  Think of all the consequences of your posting.
Ask yourself how you'll react if you see such a flame on your favorite
newsgroup flaming your favorite machine. Ask yourself if your posting will
benefit others. Do you REALLY know your facts?? Do you really need to flame
the other machine?

  The bottom line is that no one gains from such postings; $$ gets wasted
and more hatred is generated.  Both the Amiga and the Atari ST have their own
good and bad points.  If you like one or the other, buy it, use it, and have
fun with it, but PLEASE, keep those 'My PC is better than Yours' posting away
from the net.  Nobody likes to read such flames.
