- I can see how it could work! :) AT could make commercials like Energizer
- are doing with their rabbit in Star Wars commercials. Get a deal with
- Lucas Arts to produce games for the Power Amiga and possibly the "Walker",
- feature commercials with the "Walker" and Power Amiga in it (when it is
- ready) with a Star Wars theme and release them next year when the Star
- Wars 20th anniversary rolls around with a new release of Star Wars in the
- theatre! Have the new Power Amiga actually IN then BRAND new Episode 1
- Star Wars movie coming out (use it as a droid! :) ) - huge advertising! :)
