#Amiga Radio Spots!!
Help! I'm having the big one (huff, puff) – call a doctor! CBM just gave
me a heart attack!!
I just heard a radio advertisement for the Amiga – a good ad, IMHO!!!!! It
was not holiday oriented, it was not nebulous and oriented to Ninetendo,
games only etc. It was a simple ad with a straightforward message: Amiga,
high versatility at a reasonable price. And it gave an 800 number to call
for a local dealer location.
The style of the ad was similar to the Saturn car ads. It was specifically
a radio ad and not a sound track for a TV ad. One minute long and quite a
refresshing departure from any previous Amiga ads.
BTW, it didn't even mention CBM – just "the Amiga computer" and "the Amiga
line of computers" and "your Amiga computer dealer". It was aired on KTWV,
a fusion jazz, light rock, and new age music station in LA.
