Ahem. Actually , you did specifically say "It's a wonder even Commodore
understands that [the A1000 expansion bus] the way we do.". And , in fact ,
it was YOU that said it.  (You were discussing this with a customer of
Family Computer Center on rt 46 who was asking about memory cards).

I will , howvere state this for the record. YOU DO KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
All the ASDG product I have seen/heard about did what they were supposed to
do.

I would be inpressed except at the time of this attitude you weren't at that
stage yet, so this is not something you grew into.

Family Computer Computer show (1986). You were the rep. Perry is the name. I
am not sure the size but large. about 87 - 90 degrees , yes he was war m ,
however , there were many chairs to put it on that did not involve covering
a competitor's (in this case C.ltd) product. BTW -- it was mentioned to you
and you said "so what" and left the coat.

Well, taking bets on how much bandwidth this will waste?
