<cont.> Along with the fact that their is *no* C= supported Ethernet/Novell compatible network solution is relegating the Amiga to the video/music (and little enough of that, the Atari still really owns the music market here) and game sector, with growing interest in multimedia applications. If C= expects to get anywhere before being blown out of the water by Apple with their new low priced MACs (even here, *any* university student can get one at half price, and university is free here so they often have the cash) and also being held at bay by MS-DOS/Windows 3.0 and OS2, they are going to have to clean up their act. Better customer support, improvements to the operating system (especially the ability to add third-party graphics cards and have them supported under AmigaDOS and Intuition) and improved marketing will be the final deciding factor. Does your company stand much of a chance here? Don't know. The best people to ask would be GD. Find out if they will give you an estimate of how many registered users they have here. That's the best estimate. Pagestream appears to be more popular here. It is the *little man's* DTP program. Right from the start it offered support for clean output on dot-matrix printers, and that probably was the difference. Ciao, Neil
