That's true. However, AmigaWorld, while having the largest distribution of
any American mag, is also the least respected – it is short on substance,
and they do a bad job across the board on reviews; I can name you many
that are incredibly sorry.
The thing is, Imagemaster has received positively rave reviews in a host
of other mags, many of them european, and we are definitely seeing a large
number of sales as a direct result of those reviews.
If AW had done theirs responsibly, I'm sure we'd see more – but the facts
are that we have definite responses from most reviews that we can point
at. The only exception to that that I can think of was the NoteBook review
in Compute, which was very, very good – well written, positive and
something that you would think would drag customers in droves to the
dealer… we saw virtually no response at all from that. I think it's
because of the peculiar distribution and the hidden nature of the mag's
Amiga support, but can't be certain.
