I'm going to be posting this message every few days for the next week or so.
This echo is about to be merged with the other Amiga For-Sale echo,
AMIGASALE.  This echo doesn't have enough traffic in it, so I decided to gain
the moderatorship of it, and let everyone go to AMIGASALE.
In this time frame, we need a unified Amiga community.  Having two seperate
Amiga For-Sale echoes with identical postings and identical rules serves no
purpose.
Please, ask your SysOp to get the AMIGASALE echo if they don't have it
already.  This echo, AMIGA_SALE will be taken off of FIDOnet on July 22nd,
1996.

If you generally post in here *and* AMIGASALE, please cease posting in here.

assistant: This is a warning from the moderator to anyone who buys the copy of DLG BBS
from Barry Herbert.  According to the author of DLG, Jeff Grimmett, ATIS
(The previous owner of DLG) gave Barry a full refund on DLG.  Therefore,
according to Jeff Grimmett, the copy is invalid.  This invalid copy will
*not* get support from DLG Development, and will not be upgradable past
version 1.0 due to the serial number being locked out.  If one tries to
upgrade this copy, "the handler patch will barf all over it and label it as
a pirated copy" according to Jeff.
