- I just wanted to relate to you all an experience I had when buying an Amiga
- game the other day.
-
- I went into an independent High Street computer retailer to look at their
- Amiga wares. I've previously bought 2 Amigas from their and a Citizen
- printer.
-
- I picked up a copy of SimCity 2000. Priced at 12.99 UKP instead of RRP of
- 34.99 UKP (I think), so I decided to buy it.
-
- The assistant took the game and read the System requirements on the box.
-
- Assistant: Do you have a hard drive?
- Me: Yes.
- Assistant: Do you have 4 MB of RAM?
- Me: Yes.
- Assistant: Well, I'm impressed then!
- Me: <ROTFL...Not!>
-
- Obviously they haven't sold many.
