General Computer Store of Framingham, Mass. has decided to get out of the Commodore business 8-( . Not that they were any great store, or anything, but they were the closest source for Amiga stuff. Their reason is that "Commodore is starting to sell Amigas in department stores". Any comments? Is this a Good Thing for the Amiga or a Bad Thing? -- Daniel Pearl ...!uunet!masscomp!danny c/o CONCURRENT -- 1 Technology Way -- Westford, MA 01886

Is this a Good Thing for the Amiga or a Bad Thing? I think it's a good thing, and I think your computer store is just making an excuse. After all, the Atari ST and IBM-clones are already available in department stores. What does that leave, Apple? -- Peter da Silva `-_-' peter@sugar.uu.net Have you hugged U your wolf today?

Actually some Apple's are sold by Macy's (or is it Emporium -- I always get 'em confused.) here in Northern Ca. for some time. Didn't notice Macs though. Dave S.
