"CBM has been amazingly inept in the past at marketing the best personal
computer in the galaxy… But I must say they've gotten REMARKABLY better
in the past 9 months or so. They're now advertising SOME at least, they
have helpful PR folks, and better machines. They're doing better now than
they have in years…."
that's true Denny, but don't you think that it's really coming too late?
It's just so frustrating to me to see so much good software coming out for
the clones and just a trickle of stuff for the Amiga. I have been with the
AMiga for many years and currently have a 2000 and a 3000. I love my
machine but I really have a hard time recommending the machine to friends
to buy as a new computer even for playing games. The main reason is that
there are too few dealers that really support the machine (in Columbus Ohio
there is really only 1 dealer that supports it). I don't know, it's just
frustrating. Maybe the situation is better for other Amiga owners in
bigger towns but around here it's pretty grim.
