My local dealer called the Skyles tech support line. Mind you, this is
a DEALER! And he's got an entire cow college (Northwestern State
University) convinced that Amigas are the next best thing to SUNs, and
they want a bunch of expansion RAM because they're sick of floppy
drives but can't afford hard disks yet... at least 15 or so sales. And
he had the same basic experience... his remarks to me: "Don't deal
with Skyles. A bunch of a**holes". Not to mention that their products
really aren't too good... in fact, an IEEE-488 cartridge they produced
for the C-64 had a bad habit of blowing up computers.

Disclaimer: I haven't bought my Amiga yet (Real Soon Now!), and
besides, we all know about dealers :-).
