Guess what, I read in Znet (thanks again, Greg) that Atari Canada
did/does have a package bundling some or all new STs with NeoDesk.
I'd take that over a disk loaded TT desktop, but then, I already did!
I'm the only guy stupid enough to have all desktops known to man 8-).
Comments from Canada about the promotion?  Even more pointedly,
comments on the feasability of this idea in the rest of N.A. from
Atari U.S. sales???!

Waiting to hear from you,
