Now that I think of it. Even Tandy has succumbed to the "3-piece suit" syndrome. Like sex, you need to find some way to draw this out and milk it for all the raw retribution that you can. Let's see, maybe you could have him explain and compare the virtues and deficiencies of each Tandy computer. Of course he'll ask you "What do you wish to use this system for" and you'll need to find a way to talk around that. Make sure he throws in a free copy of "Sticky-Bear Bop." It's so much more fun when you have an umpteen-million dollar budget to play with. That way you can abuse "the big boys." After all, professionals all where three-piece suits, don't they? HA HAH HA HAHA HAHAH HAHAH HAH HA HAH.... It's so fun to treat the salesmen like shit and still watch them smile. -- UUCP: ...{decvax,ihnp4,allegra}!seismo!trwatf!root - Lord Frith ARPA: trwatf!root@SEISMO "Give a man a horse... and he thinks he's enormous"
