What is the biggest complaint about CBM heard all over the world? The AMIGA is
not a business computer. Business = productivity, yes, no?
Perhaps if you saw some demos running in the store window that took advantage
of the productivity products out there, there might be more acceptance and
understanding of a machine that does a far better job that ANY single tasking
machine, as a potential business computer.

We have been using AMIGAs since we started and it is obvious from the systems I
have helped to set up (from A500 to A2000) that the AMIGA can be made to truley
shine in a work environment.

I really don't want people to think of the AMIGA as ONLY a fancey graphics and
animation computer (read: games machine) even though for the buck it does a
better job in those catagories. Lets see some demos of multiple worksheets,
with files downloading from BBSs and word precessors printing letters, etc....

BTW, if the best things in life are free, who bought you your AMIGA?
