Speaking of which, where did all those ads go anyway?  After the commericals
last fall, (which I only saw 5 times instead of the projected 20, and that
only because I intentionally went searching for them on an independent station)
and the magazine articles which only were shown in a couple of issues of
each mag (Time, NewsWeek, etc)., I have not seen or heard another Amiga
ad.  Is there any advertising going on now? What happened to that business
campaign? Also, the government market campaign that last July C= said would
start Jan '90, and turn a lot of heads in the government world?
