At the Consumer Electronics Show held in Chicago this weekend, I saw about
5 amiga 500's, 2 amiga 2000's (one with 2 drives), and a little over half
a dozen amiga 1000's.

Is anyone interested in a fuller report on CES?  I don't want to waste net
bandwidth if not, and also I didn't attend every day, but I could at least
post a cursory summary if there's interest...
