I contacted my Regional Sales Manager and told him how imperative it was that my school have a rep. You also could contact your Regional "ASOC" (Amiga Student on Campus) manager. Either of these two people can send you the necessary info and forms to sign up. Be prepared to "sell yourself" in a phone interview if necessary. They will want a resume and would like to see some experience. Pride in your "Amy" will definately be a "plus". Some technical experience would be helpful, since you will be trying to sale computers to people who tend to be smarter and more inquisitive than the normal "Joe Blow" on the street. If you didn't know any better, you could be flustered by a Mac owner who tries to tell you that his Mac can emulate the Amiga FASTER and with 12 million colors! (Of course WE all know better!) Besides, you'll also want to help support Amiga owners that need technical assistance from time to time. "The best advertisement is a happy customer" Good Luck. ----------------- For all of you who don't want to be a student rep, but LOVE your "Amy", "sing the praises" of your favorite computer. You don't have to be a student rep in order to help sell the machine. Instead of selling a million units in a couple of years, I would love to see C= selling a million units in a couple of MONTHS! Don't Flame me if you disagree. -- Art Warner Amiga makes it happen.......... wwarner@en.ecn.purdue.edu IBM,Mac,Sun,& Next make it expensive!
