Locally I had heard that the ad campaign in USA Today was delayed exactly
one week.  This is very unfortunate, because the Sept 28 issue had the
section on personal computers.  This would have been the ideal section
to advertise in.

By the way, did anyone noticed they rated the Amiga 3 out of 5 in performance
(which they defined as speed) and the PS/2 Model 30 a 5.  *SIGH*  I
hate the media...
