marketed environment.<<
Chris,
You missed the point. Applied Electronics didn't SELL C64's, they MADE
them for C=. They are an OEM.
They are currently on a huge worldwide expansion of their new marketing
arm… in other words, they are setting up DISTRIBUTION, not
manufacturing… and that's what the C= Europe companies are…
distribution companies. I doubt that Applied Electronics would have any
interest at all in actually participating in the marketing of the Amiga
computer, although I suppose they could help facilitate the manufacture of
the product and support the distribution through the existing channels.
