For instance; Dallas, Dynasty, The Colbys, and Knot's Landing all have AT&T PC's in the offices and most of the phones (non-residential) are Merlins. Even the desk in the lobby of the La Mirage (Dynasty) has a Unix Pc 6300. Is this a coincidence or does AT&T have some sort of agreement with these shows? I never see AT&T commercials during these episodes. Do they sponsor them in any way? Just curious. I will welcome any answers either by mail or on the net.
