It shows I have an opinion that is diffrent than yours, ignorance (that was your word, right pal?) is when you have to result to personal attacks instead of using facts! Anyway, I have owned several small computer stores, I have had to fight to keep my customers from going mail order and I have even told some of them that they *SHOULD* buy their equipment from mail order channels! I have also see complete computer novices buy computers from mail order firms thousands of miles away, just to save 3%! I make my money either way, because the customer will come to me and pay for my knowledge.. And when I have to, I can become very competitve with mail order companies.. The AMIGA is a computer, (right?) and it is subject to the exact same buying climate the MS-Dos machines are based on, just on a much smaller scale.. In ST. Louis (POP 1 million) I can buy PC Clone stuff at 50-60 stores, only 10-20 are any good. I can buy amiga stuff at 10 stores and only 2 are any good.. The scale is about right, is it not? — Alan
