I think you are right, especially when reading news on the net. Here in
Europe are no diskussions like that in the USA "520ST vs. AMIGA" or
"ATARI ST vs. C128". Silly things. Here in Germany the 520ST sells fine
(no Amiga until Spring/Summer 86) and many professional program
packages (wordprocessors, databases, an specialised commercial software
for the german market) are availible. Go on diskussing, we will have fun
in the meantime (:-)). Here at the University of Dortmund we bought only
in November and December last year about 30 ST's (all with 1 MB) and they
work really fine and they are in great demand.
