  I'm sure there are a number of people out there who aren't intersted
  in reading this, but I feel it's important to let people who read my
  previous message know that AmiExpo has taken care of the problem.

  I spoke to Joseph Lowery last Friday, Oct 26th regarding the bad
  mouse that mine had been replaced with.  Since Creative Computers was
  out of the ``normal'' Commodore Mouse, he ordered me an optical mouse
  (which arrived last night, Oct 30th).  And I'll be sending AmiExpo
  20$, the difference in price between getting a Boing or Commodore
  Mouse, and shipping the defective mouse back to AmiExpo.

  It (naturally) has been a bit of a headache for me, but I'm glad that
  everything has been taken care of in a reasonably timely manner.
