First of all, thanks to everyone for all the info on the Basic 80
column question I posted earlier.

Secondly, I just thought I'd let Commodore know how I got the
Textcraft demo.  As you all know... There is virtually no software
available for the Amiga (at least not in the Seattle area...).  My
dealer said I could get the demo if I prepaid for the real thing.  I
certainly hope this isn't illegal, because it seems everyone is
doing it.  

Anyway, thanks for the info, Commodore.  Keep it up!
