thanks to the people who defended cycling '74 from those backwards, non-complimentary conclusions. i am floored by the ease with which deceit and hateful propaganda flow around in this murky soup of 1's and 0's. in the words of that pot smoking science dude, Carl Sagan: "All of the books in the world contain no more information than is broadcast as video in a single large American city in a single year. Not all bits have equal value." the claim that most annoys me is that cycling '74 software is repackaged, that there's no added value over what is freely available elsewhere. going back to programming with the first versions of Max, before David Z. started making it into the feature-rich environment it is today, would be like switching to a rusty Lada after driving a Ferrari. please- conduct your own research either through the downloadable demos or at the appropriate web sites. excuse me this inbox intrusion, idm. bbn (@cycling74.com) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
