Mark: You are right, of course. Amiga does have the capabilities. I just don't think Commodore can pull it off. They are certainly trying though. The staff is much more professional and the ideas are good. It's just a very difficult task to elevate themselves above the noise level. I dunno. As for Brown-Wagh (not B-H), we cannot afford to launch a new line of Amiga productivity products unless we see a market that would justify the effort. Unfortunately, it's not there today. And possibly not for a long time, or ever. Please don't hold this against me — as I said many times, we would love to be back in full form in the Amiga market. PS – I'll keep my fingers (and toes) crossed that CBM can do it. We still have a limited Amiga product line (Service Industry Accounting and Presentation Graphics (new name for BGraphics)). AmigaVision seems great. I've read the ads but haven't seen it demo'ed. The problems is now the PC market as well as the Mac market is really noisy and excited about multimedia. Amiga (although great) is no longer alone (they had their chance). It will be **very** tough for them now to get fair evaluation time from major accounts. Steve
