- > But, we have all been burnt so often...
-
- No, we have been burned once. By Commodore. The only way you could say
- that Escom burned us was if they just killed the Amiga. It seems that
- AT and Escom found the Amiga a good home. Oh, actually we have been
- burned twice. I almost forgot about Opalvision. Can you say "Pissed".

-
- If they market it like crazy it should carve out a market. Think about
- all the kids that want to surf the net, but their parents don't want to
- spend two G's on a PC. The kids would be happy just to have a computer
- hooked up to their TV. Maybe the A1200 should have S-Vid.

-
- I'm sure it was. It will undoubtably get cleaned up. What's important
- for now is does it work?
