Or some such, with a couple quick cuts to show where and how Amigas are being used. Ads during the Superbowl cost big bucks, but in the computer industry and several others, its ok not to watch the game as long as you watch the commercials to find out what the competition is doing. If Amigas are used as extensively at this SuperBowl as the last one, it would be a crime to miss using all the free publicity by not taking one short spot to deflate the other computer commercials to follow. :-) -- Robert I.
