Thanx. Glad to know I am not the ONLY one thats ever happened to. I think I know what went wrong and I should be able to avoid it in the future. So far, I have gotten about 10 flames on it! Here's something else that I wanted to mention about England and their attitude towards Commodore: Over there, the Amiga is held in high regard as a game and business machine. We've all known that for awhile now, but did you know that Commodore UK goes as far as to set up A500 packages based totally on a few games? In fact, with the overwhelming popularity of the movie by the same name, the Amiga 500 BATMAN COMBO PACK (A500, RF TV Adapter, 512K and one drive bundled with the BATMAN: The Movie Video Game) is one of their all time best sellers over there? The outside of the box is made up to look sort of bat-cavish with big bold letters pronouncing it as the A500 BATMAN COMBO. Weird. You have to see some of these ads to believe it! -Moriland -- | hastoerm@vela.acs.oakland.edu | __ | | | __/// Viva Amiga! | | Founder Of: Evil Young | \XX/ | | Mutants For A Better Tomorrow | "Single Tasking: JUST SAY NO!" |
