This Saturday night, at approximately 11:30 pm EST, millions of television viewers will be exposed to the Amiga computer. The TV station will be NBC, during the opening scenes of Saturday Night Live (just before Don Par-dough says "Saturday Night Live"). There will be a close up of a New York City electronics store, of which two computers will be displayed with a television set between them. Take a good look at the computer on the left. For those of you in New York, you will know what to expect (the computers hang from the ceiling, with the spacebar aimed at the floor and the rear ports pointing upwards, with a price tag stating "$15 (and up)". :) In fact, I think the computer on the right was a C64 (it had the brighter color).
