Not so fast there... Software City in Charlotte does have a 2000 loded with     many demos.  They will let you try ANY software package before you buy, and     all the staff are extremely educated on the machine (more so than any other     place I have been with).  
	I have also taken suff back without a hastle at all.  While this store  might not have a lot of demo machines, the staff are great, and the selection   of software is nice.  

Point taken though, interested students do not have an easy a time to look      into an Amiga.  Does CBM even have a 1-800 number?  Byte (on their issue of     the 3000) didn't give an 800 number.
  

ps./ Pushing the subject of Amiga visibility, why not advertise in BYTE,             or do more commercials? I  still have yet to ever see one (although I am familiar with the ad campain that went on)
