   In the quest for the 'Best Amiga Store' (which I believe every Amiga user
is perpetually involved in) I was made quite happy with a particular store in
Latham, New York.  It is called Contemporary Computers and it is not a chain
of stores nor is it totally Amiga related.  They sell IBM and MAC software and
some hardware but their main selection is Amiga hardware and software.  The
staff is very knowledgeable about the Amiga (Yes, I know it is hard to
believe), as well as the other computer components that they sold.  Their
store was the site of the local Amiga User Group, you could use their in-store
Amigas to print out documents or just to use the latest software.  In my
opinion this store was exactly what an Amiga (or any) computer store should
be.  They were friendly, willing to help and knew their stuff.  They provided
many services to the local Amiga community and used the Amiga themselves.

   My only regret is that I no longer attend school in that region.  I sorely
miss this type of Amiga Store and I wish more retailers had their act together
like this place did.. 


   So, now begins the mass exodus to sunny Latham, N.Y.   >-)  (Route 9!!)
