Whoa Joe!  I believe Bev Cadieux, Charles Turley, and myself have experienced
very unfriendly attitudes from certain individuals on Delphi A2 forum, and
thus are not in the 99.999% of Apple II users who do love Delphi.  How
many A2 users are on Delphi?  Well, (1-.99999)x>=3, so x>=3/.000001, or
x >= 3,000,000!  Are you implying that there are over 3,000,000 a2 users
paying Delphi $35/year and Apple Computer doesn't consider the Apple II
to be a viable market?!!!!  Many companies would bend over backwards for
3,000,000 customers.  Someone from Delphi really needs to point out to
Apple Computer that we Apple II users are a very large base who spends
$100,000,000 a year on just one online system!  AOL may just get so jealous
that they will restart Apple II service to reclaim some of those 3,000,000
users!

Wow!!!
