Leo, I am shocked that this kind of posting would come from you!!
  For starters..... MONEY makes a BIG difference!!! You said money aside...
and then you talk about 60 sec spots during the Super Bowl... Is this
free????? I think not! Everyone seems to forget that during the first 1 1/2 to
2 years of the Amigas life Commodore was in not to good a shape. Came damn
close to bittin the big one. NOW they are in good shape, and THEY a
advertising the Amiga.. And not in Amiga mags... Music, Video and general
interest type mags!
 One interesting quote that I heard from Dale Luck I THINK it was....
" we can all make fun of Commodore, but when the do have the money, they have
shown marked tendencies to spend it very wisely" or words to that effect! :> :>
 I have been on the Amiga band wagon since THE start, and I can say that there
has been MUCH improvment, more so the last year. I do think that Commodore is
starting to understand, just HOW important the Amiga really is!! Leo, if your
going to post negatives, how about some of the GOOD things that have happend!
Commodore has continued to enhance and yes fix some bugs while another
"off brand" company just makes promises! :> :>

  I guess what I am trying to say is chin up... The Amiga is STILL a DAMN
good machine!! And I am surprised at Leo getting upset by hearsay!!
