Good to read about Amigas in non-Amiga > publications. > > Ali Ozer, ali@rocky.stanford.edu Since I know you folks like to hear about ANYTHING we're up to here at Commodore, you should be pleased to know we're currently involved in a huge loaner-review program for publications of all kinds. So far we've loaned 50 or so A500's and a few A2000's, but the numbers will be increasing in the next few weeks. The publications include music, graphics, design, architecture, computer specialty, and many others. Since the program is being supported directly by us, i.e., if a magazine reviewer has problems operating the machine for example, someone here will help them personally with it, we should get some good press out of it. PLEASE don't ask ME if you can be a "loaner-site", that's up to our P.R agency, in California. Don't call them unless you're involved with a magazine. Their name is Fleischmann-Hillard (probably spelt wrong). This isn't my usual "formal, tell it to the users" style of message, but I thought it was a positive thing you'd all like to know.
