Larry,
By "niches" I refer to the type of marketing that Apple did with the
"Machintosh" in the electronic document/typesetting world. The AMIGA lends
itself greatly to the advertising world, workstation world, CAD/CAM world,
etc… That doesn't mean that the AMIGA should be limited to those areas,
but trade magazines might have advertising included in them to point out
the AMIGA's features relating to those areas. I agree, they need a whole
lot more advertising. Also, I am dissappointed that CBM does not try to
get some crossover business from the C64 and C128 worlds. But hey, who are
we, a couple of disgruntled owners of the best "hardware" on the market,
upset because our machine crashes with memory errors every 15 mins. or so,
that we can't find a piece of software for a specific application, and
wondering when we will be able to. Mike
