Ben, I have to agree with Don. I can only place this next in a time frame, by saying it was a couple months before Wordperfect said they were going to leave the Amiga market. But at that time I talked to two people at A-T who said that the Amiga was seriously being studied. I can't vouch for their veracity, and I haven't spoken to them since, but they were certainly aware of the Amiga then, and claimed to be actively keeping an eye on it. A glop of phone calls out of the blue would smell too much like exactly what it is. If you want to try it, I suggest being a little more subtle, and spread the inquiries out over time. But I doubt it's effectiveness. But I also don't see Don's last scenario happening. A-T wouldn't do the port to begin with unless they saw a decent business market already in place. Remember Wordperfect began development before anybody knew how well the Amiga would do. Lee
