   I followed that kind of attitude when I worked for Radio Hack, a long
time ago.  Yeah, I know I'm supposed to be pushing RS computers, but I always
asked the customer exactly what he wanted to do with his computer.  If it 
were only for games, or as a family fun station, I would usually suggest the
Atari 800 or C-64.  If they wanted a large base of software, I would usually
suggest they looked into the Apple II+.  Only if they were interested in
a business computer and basically a PC clone would I suggest the RS PC clone.
Granted, I never made my commission, but I felt a whole lot more satisfied.
