Michael, as I keep pointing out, as do others, to go after the IBM-clone market requires money. Money to advertise, money to seed various software development firms (i.e. bribe them to support your platform), money to pay off the media. I've been tracking Commodore for quite a while, given my investment in an extremely early A1000, and they've never had that kind of money. Whether you want to blame that on the owners, the executive types, or whatever, the money has never been there. I'm quite suspicious of those that say the CD32 will be marketed well as this bears no resemblence whatsover to past marketing pracitices. If it is marketed well, I wonder how far CBU went into debt.
