For Colin and anyone else who might have trouble being taken seriously
as a student: Try finding a faculty or staff member who has an amiga,
see if you can get their weight behind a request. Or find one who is
sympathetic to the cause. Maybe they could request an on campus demo of
the 2000 and 3000 systems. Get a bunch of users group members (if there
is a group) to arange a presentation on campus. The slogan is "The
computer for the creative mind."(tm) In orcer to get past closed minds
you will have to practice being creative.
