Ben – In a copy of the November 19, 1990 edition of People, purchased off the rack in Monterey, CA, a four page Commodore ad was placed between pages 70 and 71. The ad pictures an A500, and a lot of software including Bars & Pipes, The Animation Studio, Sim City, Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego, Deluxe Paint III and Distant Suns. The ad starts off with the question (in very large capital letters) "What to get when your kids' brains outgrow NINTENDO?" I've also seen another print portion of the new ad campaign. For a couple of weeks there has been a display ad in Navy Times (and probably other papers published by the Times Journal Co., such as Army Times, etc.) which starts off with the statement "Just when you thought it was safe to use your own computer". Of course, the centerpiece of this ad is a great white shark coming out of the monitor on top of an A3000. Jeff Schweiger
