DAVE COBLE and ALL will demonstrate tag-team An Oldie.  Everyone take notes.

 DC> What kind of an Amiga owner are you?
 DC> ====================================

This looks like the "Take C" quiz from the /John/-/Boy/ /and/ /Billy/ /Show/.

You won't like some of my answers, though.

 DC>  1. Who's really responsible the Amiga's "death" ?

 DC>     d) Irv the Ghoul & Mehdi Ali

Who else?

 DC>  2. A good clone is:

 DC>     b) the same system running OS/2 2.2 instead of Windows.

At least it /looks/ right...

 DC>  3. If someone were to give me a clone for free, I would:

 DC>     b) thank him/her, then dedicate the clone to playing Doom every so
 DC>        often.

S'truth!

 DC>     d) open the machine quickly and salvage all the neat toys for my
 DC>        Amiga.

/What/ neat toys?  We're talking about a clone...

 DC>  4. Your friend came over to your house and found a nondescript
 DC> computer on the floor next to the door.  You told him that it is:

 DC>     b) a clone.  I am getting it fixed soon so I can get on with my
 DC>        life.

Yeah.../what/ life?

 DC>     d) a clone.  Dutifully serving its current function as a high-tech
 DC>        doorjam ever since you bought your Amiga.

Why would I have a clone?

 DC>  5. So you've bought a new game that cost you a good bit of lunch money
 DC>     but the copy protection scheme won't let it run on your
 DC>     (pick your own scenario) your reaction, as an Amiga owner, is:

 DC>     a) so ... what else is new?

 DC>     d) recommend the clone version of the product to your clone-owning
 DC>        friends.

 DC>  6. Now that Commodore US went "poof", my Amiga:

 DC>     d) is humming along just fine, thank you for asking ... been that
 DC>        way for years.

 DC>  7. Amidst rumors of the Samsung purchase of Amiga technologies, I:
 DC>     c) remember buying something incredibly cost-effective from them a
 DC>        long time ago ... and wouldn't you know it ... it's still
 DC>        working today!

 DC>     d) am looking forward to possible licensing of Amiga technologies
            (et cetera, et cetera..)

 DC>  8. When I see a clone user engaging in such an unsavory act of ...
 DC>     piracy, I: (Whatcha thinking?  This is a PG13 echo, eh!)

 DC>     c) Let them suffer.  It's a freaking clone!

 DC>  9. From the day I bought my Amiga, my life has been:

 DC>     d) what life?  I have no life.  It's just me and the Amiga. <click>
 DC>        <click>

 DC> 10. Who "looks like a professor gone terribly wrong" ?
 DC>     a) why, me, of course!

If I wore glasses. (snerk!)

 DC>     b) Joyce Divina
 DC>     c) Skal Lorett
 DC>     d) Eric V. Petersen

All of the above.  I've actually /met/ Joyce.

 DC> and lastly,

 DC> Zeemah:
 DC>     a) is a unique alcoholic windshield washing fluid.
 DC>     b) is a perfect substitute if you happen to need battery acid on a
 DC>        dirt road ... away from all known civilizations.
 DC>     c) produces a bunch of annoying commercials.
 DC>     d) zucks.

All of the above.  It certainly wasn't meant to be /consumed/.

And it's spelled "Zima."
