- In the FidoNet AMIGA echo, we've started our own "kick in the pants"
- response to the PC's TEAM OS/2. It's taking off like wildfire! We'd like
- to extend the invite to every Amiga devotee, everywhere! We have hundreds
- of members from several countries and from Fido, Internet and on-line
- services.
-
- It's free. There are no dues. There are no rules. There are no officers.
- There are no idiots with a sense of pretentiousness (like CCISU or whatever
- the name of that "club" for Amiga Sysops was... ;).
-
- To join, all you have to do is:
-
- 1) Swear that you are an Amiga enthusiast who extols the virtues of the
- Amiga to anyone and everyone you meet who is interested in computers
- (ESPECIALLY the PC crowd! ;) and now that the Amiga's future is looking
- up, you'll continue to do so even more fervently than before.
-
- 2) If you decide to join, fill out the application below and send it to me
- to be added to the list, so if there are any billion dollar sweepstakes
- prizes or warehouses of Amigas to be awarded (WINK WINK, GRIN GRIN ;) ,
- we'll know how to contact you. Seriously, a database is being kept and
- will be forwarded to AT/Escom, should they decide to pick up the ball and
- run.
-
- (Footnote: Since this all started, we do know that Amiga Technologies is
- observing Team AMIGA activities closely and has expressed interest in the
- near future of "officially recognizing" us.
-
- One objective of Team AMIGA of course, was to get as many Amiga enthusiasts
- worldwide to make a statement of support, but another objective, is to show
- AT/Escom how much of a mistake it would be to not adequately support other
- continents, like North America and Australia)
-
- 3) Always acknowledge that I am the one who started all this (hey, I want
- SOME credit! (It's a JOKE, people, a JOKE! ;)
-
- 4) Know and understand that your stats will be in a database kept by me
- (Rick Lembree) and _not_ released to _anyone_. If it comes to the point
- that AT/Escom wants to take the ball on this, they are the _only_ ones I
- will release the database to, and I will at that time ask that if they
- release the database to other companies, that they be released only to
- AMIGA oriented ones.
-
- The only other thing we ask of you, is if you use the name in your on-line
- signature, that you type it exactly as shown below:
-
- Team AMIGA
-
- The reason is for consistency, and for recognition. If everyone types it a
- different way, it appears that we don't "have our act together".
-
- If you agree to all the above, just send in the following information:
-
- (Important! Please use this template as is and with ALL necessary info
- requested to facilitate database entry, ok? If replying from a Fido node,
- don't assume that I will have your Fido address when doing the database!
- INCLUDE IT in the template! Thanks. :)
