Oh yes, I most certainly said I had an Amiga.  Mr. Technical Non-Support
first tells mt that my disks should have the programs LC1B and LC2B on them.
I assured him this was not the case.  He seemed exceedingly puzzled then said
"Oh, that's right, you have AmigaDOS.  Then it's the same programs.  However,
he continued to insist that -B is a valid option.  Not wanting to waste the
money on another prime-time phone call from here to Illinois, I then decided
to ask the Net, the members of which I am sure are more qualifies than that
poor excuse for a technical supprt man.
