- Actually, according to Petro Tyschtschenko in April's Amazing Computing, he
- said that the new "Master Distributor" in North America is Quikpak although
- SMG "will remain with their special knowledge." Petro went on to say that
- "Quickpak will now take care of this market. They will do the marketing and
- advertising in North America." It seems that in this interview Petro gave
- Quickpak credit for allowing dealers to order one or more instead of the min
- of 10.
