Barbara,
Where in Canada are you? I visited Toronto, Montreal, and Quebec last
summer.
The educational market takes time to develop, nurture, and expand, and
while CBM has made a "hit" with a one or two universities in the US, they
are otherwise, non-existent. I believe CBM DOES have an educational
'person' or 'position', but I certainly don't know what they do.
I could well believe that Europe is more into games than "business
software", but CBM needs to develop a REAL business center SOMEWHERE to
help balance the games arena(s). They also need to do more domination in
the video and multimedia arenas, not just hit a few magazines and then
take a nap.
You are inDEED fortunate to have so many apparently, reputable Amiga
dealers near you. Here's hoping they continue into the next decade!
Oh well – just like all other "diehards", I won't abandon my Amiga, EVEN
IF CBM goes belly up, but I don't see that happening, just yet.
