Wearing those shades again?? What do you call the 'Classic' series from Apple? I would certenly call it a challange. The way these machines are priced they are cerain to attract a whole lot of people that otherwise would buy a A2000. And thats no challange??? >>Does cbm int'l know how much cbm sweden is screwing up? > "cbm int'l" knows what we are doing in Sweden, but they don't call it > screwing up. Only you do. Im quite sure that the original poster ain't the only one. Just look at the current situation in Stockholm. The only ones who sells Amiga's is 'Stor & Liten' and 'Datakompaniet'. 'Stor & Liten' is a toystore, and don't have the A2000, and 'Datakompaniet' is totally uninterested in selling any machines at all, even though 'Datacompaniet' is said to be the company that is handling the distribution from Commodore to the other stores. > >Peter Hjalmarsson, Amiga Support, Commodore Sweden >...{uunet|rutgers|pyramid}!cbmvax!cbmehq!cbmswe!hjalmar > Mvh Tobbe -- ----- Torbj|rn Pettersson Tel 08 - 676 51 70 Industri Matematik Data AB Email tope@imdpy1.im.se Kungsgatan 8 ..!sunic!imtws3!imdpy1!tope 111 43 Stockholm
