#20 Questions
I'll put these questions on the list–but here is my guess to their
response based on several COs and my discussions with Commodore.
1. Commodore has never announced a machine with more than 2MB chip
memory–so what promise is this?
2. It costs a lot of money to advertise. They don't have it.
3. I am not sure what they did was 'abandoned'. It is not uncommon
to have to pay for some support services with other distributors. I
grant that once someting is given–taking it a way gives a feeling of
abandonment. SMG had several support programs–there was one that
didn't have a call charge if I remember correctly. This whole
situation is a 'lack of cash' problem. We can't expect SMG to work
for free can we?
4. The DSP board (according to the Haynie conference) will be made
available to a third party developer. Commodore reserves the right to
use the technology of this hardware in any future machine.
5. A4000Ts cost money. Commodore can't afford to give them away with
the hopes of eventually making somethng on them.
6. A lot depends on CD32.
7. WB3.1 is done. I don't know when it will be available.

Those are my answers–just for conversation sake. 🙂
I will your questions to the list. It would be interesting to see how
many of the questions I answered correctly. 🙂
