Unfortunately, I don't believe it's legal to use InterNet news for
commercial product support due to government (NSF) restrictions.

There's been some discussion of this recently in the news.* groups.

Personally, I think the CBM people do a pretty good unofficial job
here.

That's true, I think the best way to pass on a notice is by the people 
interested, especially by the Amiga User Groups.

BTW.  Since Nancy Snyner (the one who was in charge of the Amiga User 
Groups), have been very difficult to contact the new person in charge.

Any one when is the best time to reach him? 

Sorry to post to this group, but I don't know where to post to find the
AUG info. I've been trying to register Hard Byte Amiga User Group since
six month ago.

Thanks,

Everyone who wants a detailed description of pin information and wires
and memory address locations and repairs etc. should get a copy of an
Amiga service manuel.

They run for about $60 and can be ordered from an Amiga service dealer
or, I believe, Commodore directly.

Ah - first cup of coffee and I almost missed this...

About the user group stuff (not what I was expecting in this
group, btw):

Fred Holland (holland@cbmvax.commodore.com) is eager to collect
your user group info... it'd probably be most useful if it's
similar to the AC Product Guide info (name, meeting place and
time, contact person/phone, and contact address, etc..)

I don't know if someone else handles non-US user groups (most
likely Puerto Rico would be handled by the US folks) but it
wouldn't hurt to ask...
