    GG>      So out of curiousity, how many Amiga One owners are there out

   Wouldn't have clue! I ordered mine in the first week Eyetech announced them   
   -about May 10, 2002. When I joined the 'I am Amiga Club' in July, there were   
   a couple hundred sold. By November's Earlybird special it was over a   
   thousand. After November Amiga-Anywhere stopped posting the count. It's year   
   since, so your guess is as good as any!    
      
    GG>      Here in the Dallas clubs we have two.  :)   
   That's good to hear. Anything particular about them? I have the XE-G4,   
   256MB mem., ATI Radeon 7000 gfx, Debian linux 2.4.22. I'm not all that   
   bright using linux. I kind of wanted to use OS4.x! Gads, OS4 is dragged out.   
      
   Last month I tried this linux 'minicom' & 'MultiMail'. I was surprised it   
   worked! =:o Also, with the UAE update, I can use IBrowse 2.3 now. Still   
   can't do QWK mail in UAE. No repairs to the UTP/ clock were made. Anyway,   
   that's some of the stuff going on here with this AmigaOne.
