No bugs, no way. I think it's basically a supply problem; getting all the parts that have to go into an A2000 doesn't happen as fast as they are currently selling. The process of building them will happen faster as the production folks learn the machine better and as the strange demand conditions of (A) this is a new machine, and (B) CBM has a trade-in offer level off. -- Dave Haynie Commodore-Amiga Usenet: {ihnp4|caip|rutgers}!cbmvax!daveh "The B2000 Guy" PLINK : D-DAVE H BIX : hazy "Computers are what happen when you give up sleeping" - Iggy the Cat
