I've noticed that a number of people are commenting about the Japan/US market differences, but I wonder about just how much of this there is that one could call a two way street. I lived in Japan for quite a while and never saw any Commodore/Apple/IBM products for sale there (and I am talking about the REAL products, not clones). Does anyone know if the Japanese have discovered the Amiga? If so, does anyone have sales figures for the number of users in Japan that own Amigas?

There are lots of articles on lisp and other languages, architectures and computer systems. In one issue there was an Amiga review, it look similar in coverage to what Byte covered in their Amiga preview article. -- Rich miner@dino.ulowell.edu 617/452-5000x2693 UL-CPE Imaging Research Lab
