Andre',
The US *isn't* the center of the universe ????? ;^7
OK, granted, but come on (time out, I know you're not the person to complain to
but I *have* to kvetch at someone, please be patient) guy, ***100 CHIPS*** !!!
They HAVE to be kidding. What, did they think there were lots of people out
here who were going to say "yawn, oh, a 1 Meg graphics chip, ho hum". With
packages out there like S/A 3D et al, DPaint, etc etc etc…??? Well, I guess
CBM marketing called another one right on the nose. Geez this is getting really
annoying/frustrating. (you also have to remember that Americans, like me, are
*into* immediate gratification).
Well let's see, at this rate, I'll be able to get my hands on the Obese Agnus
about the time I can afford the 2620 i.e. sometime next summer. Which is
unfortunate because I can afford the Agnus NOW !!!
Sorry, but in my book, there is NO excuse for a major company to announce a
major hardware improvement without having sufficient supplies to at least come
close to meeting demand. I seriously doubt you would see something like this
in the PC/Mac world (and you should know by now that I don't make such
accusations likely and am VERY fond of the Amiga). I guess I'm just still to
"young" in the Ami community. I imagine most folks with more experience
*expected* something like this.
Well, sorry again to flame at *you*. You've been most gracious and your
presence here is appreciated. Thanks for the info. in any case. I hope there
are no hard feelings. Take care… Kevin
