I'm confused. This looks like an *excellent* way to get a lot of
Amigas into users hands. What's Commodore doing doing something like
that? :-).

Congrats to CBM for coming up with such a good way to convince
C64/C128/Vic-20 (yeah, I still know a few) owners to upgrade to an
Amiga. I hope it works as well or better than I think it will.
