It doesn't make a big difference (to me anyway). It does make a lot more sense. It's not worth going to war over, in any case. >>Likewise, if the disk is spinning I expect to see red. Stop.

Me, I'm on BITnet, I have to restrain myself. :) I imagine there are a few out there, and people make buying decisions based on the most minor things. The 500 is a consumer machine, and like a knowledgeable, good consumer, I bought one. Good thing I didn't notice the reversed LEDs! :) > The next >thing your going to complain about is drive 0 & 1 being reversed from the IBM >PC. Gee Dan, I have *my* df1 on the right. Was it supposed to go on the left? Damn. I'm not a complainer. I love my Amiga. If Amiga owners provide feedback to C=A maybe it will help to sell more Amigas. Is that a bad attitude? >><>Handle: Bruce Bettis USnail: University of New Orleans <> > ^^^^^^ > Seems a bit too much like a CB for me good buddy.
