I read your message several times before I replied, the following was there each one of them:

I still can't see how this is not about Freax earning money on an ebook..

Together with this one:

"_that_ ebook" convinced me you were speaking of the current Freax vol 1. Which of course is not an ebook.

It seems what you wrote and what I was suppose to read (or understand) was quite mixed up, sorry for that..

This is quite interesting too, I wonder who has said it leaves out history to be a bestseller? 40+ pages a4, rather small print, nice colour screenshots. It covers Atari company history, Atari 8bit, Atari 16/32bit. Not every little thing (as in covering every demo) of course, but what the _writer_ in his research has considered to be milestones. And as you know, he did a lot of questioning-research (for several months) a couple of years back. There will be important things missing, but there are in the C-64 and Amiga sections too, and they are 80-130 pages each. A lot of space there is spent on Computer history, like for example a long interview with the AGA chipset creator.

Please don't give me that crap, we're just argueing..
