The Amiga is about the first PC I ever seriously considered buying.
Up to now I preferred sticking to my homemade, 5 year old, 68000 stuff.
Unfortunately any new US computer equipment somehow has
the tendency to stop at the east coast for a while before
risking the hop over to Europe. As I live in Switzerland
I'm particularly bothered.
What I'm looking for :
_ Serious technical info.
_ European availability info.
_ Warranty info ( US or world wide ? )
( ... if bought in US, who in Europe would do warranty service ... )
What I would be glad to receive :
_ Any comment on the above topics.
_ Addresses ( e-mail or normal-mail ) of Commodore Offices
in the US or Europe where I could ask for such info.
_ Address of the European Commodore representative, headquarter or
whatever is appropriate.
_ Info about the warranty on the Amiga. What does it say ? Is there a
mention like "in the United States" or "world wide"?
_ What does open system mean ?
Is there enough documentation so one can build own expansion cards ?
And how deep can one fiddle around in the OS ( device drivers ... ) ?
I really would appreciate if someone would take the time to answer any of
the above questions. Please either post to the news or send me mail.
