Commodore should jump on this one... Ami can run PC, Mac, ST, 64, and UNIX... in addition, of course, to regular Amiga software. Another idea that would help to sell Amigas is to make a '500PC' package for the mass-market outlets which includes a 500 with the Pulsar PC board. This would be a great help in competing with the PS/1, since a 500PC with color monitor & additional floppy would cost only a little more than a B/W PS/1. Commercials could be run comparing the 500 & 500PC to the PS/1 and Mac Classic. Well, anyway, I think we all agree that Commodore needs to do some major advertising, and do it NOW!! Releasing CDTV wouldn't be unwelcome, either..
