- How do you figure that Escom didn't want to own the Amiga? Did they buy it
- by accident? Did someone hold a gun to their heads? Did they think they

- Please be gracious enough to explain your reasoning and enlighten the rest
- of us who have been led to believe that Escom bought the Amiga because
- *they wanted it*.
