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.
