It's obvious there's some unhappiness on both sides of this.
The Q40 is dead, long live the Q60. The Q60 is a success, no two ways about that. The entire first batch is almost sold out from what Dennis and Derek told me, so we are probably better off getting all of this off our chests then forgetting about it and see the positives to come out of it, namely that Peter and D & D Systems have a good product which seems to be selling well. The loan Q60 I had from D&D for a while has now gone back to them and I shall miss it. Brilliant piece of kit. Although I didn't get time to use it as much as I'd have liked while it was here, I did use it enough to know that it never once crashed (apart from my programming mistakes), was wonderfully fast to use and had some nice software on it - preinstalled commercial quality software being a bit of a new idea on QL-compatibles. I realise I'm changing the topic here a bit, but please believe me, whatever may have happened between you in Q40 days, the Q60 deserves to do well (I can't see how it can fail) because as far as I can see the concept is good, and between them Peter and D&D seem to have such a good product on their hands. Accordingly, by all means get this off your chests lads, but don't forget also that the Q60 is such a wonderful system when you actually get to use it! -- Dilwyn Jones [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.soft.net.uk/dj/index.html
