Woodbrigdge, VA 22191 (about 40 miles south of DC), on or near I-95 just outside the beltway) (703) 491-6502 I found the salespeople to be engineering rather than marketing types. They were fairly knowledgeable and very helpful. All the other computer stores around here have given me VERY negative "vibes". - Bob Gian... (703) 620-7329 (days)

(703) 620-7329 (days) If you don't feel like driving out to Woodbridge, you might try Waldorf Computers (301) 843-1005, of Waldorf, Alexandria, and soon, Bowie/Crofton. They seem to have just gotten the Amiga, (last Friday afternoon, in fact) and while not necessarily experts at it, it IS a chance to see the machine. They brought a unit out to the U Md Personal Computing Assoc. Computerfest last weekend, and it was fascinating to watch. Beware if they tell you the unit has 512k...the sales rep seemed to be including the figure for the kickstart hardware. (not affiliated with Waldorf; in fact, I used to work for a competitor, The Software Store) -dave hsu, sec'y, UMd PCA -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- David Hsu Across the net...
