"Need more input…" I recently was *rereading* my copy of AC's GUIDE//AMIGA, Fall '89. Did anyone catch the product announcement on pp 150 about a C-1500 by C Ltd? If no, I guess we're done. If yes, what do you know about it? Is it real?? (Come to think about it, is ANY of this "real"?) 🙂 Not to mention "The Journeyman" on same page. Does C Ltd have a vendor account or rep hereabouts on CIS??? Thanx, >>Jim

Jim, C. Ltd is bankrupt. Out of business. No longer in existance. Or any other way you want to put it. Don

The Journey Man is longer being made. The demand wasn't there and the company couldn't supply the keind of machine that a portable Amiga should be. The company in Germany mentioned in AMigaWorld seems to have things under control. It is a real laptop like we wanted to make but didn't have the money for R. ALso heard you might have a little prob getting things out of C Ltd. Appears they may not be in business any more. But that is just a rumor I hears and am not confirming this. Thanks Mike Mo Micro Momentum, Inc. P.S. We decided to stick with striaght software for now.

In the back (or maybe its the middle) of the latest AmigaWorld there are lists (short lists) of companies who have picked up some of the C-Ltd stuff. B&B Electronics (2863 S. Broadway, Witchita, KS 67216, fax:316/522-0914) offers limited customer service including repair for current C. Ltd. products. Newly-formed Ricketts, Inc. will continue development of former C. Ltd. products such as C-View, RAM expansion devices, and a modified Laser Express in parallel format. Ricketts owner Breck Ricketts plans to develop an audio-visual line, as well.
