As you probably know, CDROM-FS is made by a Canadian guy. He's not a big
company, I think he still lives with his parents. He probably has another
job. Welcome to the Amiga market. His US distributor is Vertical, Inc.,
who I'm sure has it in stock. Any dealer could call them to get it.
They're in Texas. As for why some dealers and distributors lie… I dunno.
They do. I just love it when they say a certain company is out of
business. Usually, it's just a face-saving gesture, but it's seriously
misguided. The sales droid says, gee, the computer says we can't get it,
the company must be out of business. Instead, the truth probably is that
the distributor isn't paying their bills on time and the supplier refuses
to send them more product. How do distributors make money? By borrowing
money (in the form of product) from developers.
