I know, I know, we've discussed this before, but now I'm really starting to wonder. We have the best damn computer on the market, the tech support and developement is pretty good (i.e. 1.3 Obese Agnes, etc.) and still nobody in the US knows about it. Why? What could be done? A friend of mine was QUITE annoyed at the Amiga special on the computer chronicles show. He said that commodore supplied them with a plain vanilla 2000. No flicker fixer, no 020. Why? Commodore's marketing is almost as bad as Atari's. I would hate to see the machine fail. -Evan
