   A couple of weeks ago there was a side view of an Amiga 1000 in an ad for
MCI's fax network in the Wall St. Journal. And today (Tues) there was a full
page (!) ad for the 2500 in the WSJ on B-3 near the tech news. The ad was aimed
at corporate (suprise!) video/graphics uses and mentioned multitasking and 
genlocks. The ad was a little crowded for my taste but was a least as good in
execution as recent ads by Compaq and IBM. Perhapse following Max Toy's "if
you have to ask" theory there was no pricing info given. 
   Intrestingly enough there was an article on the next page speculating why
IBM's stock is droping. Where is my Kinison.h ....?
