- Paula, it seems to me that you have a quite fatalistic view of the world!
- I actually got some answers, and I'm still back in replaying to all of them
- and thanking and saying "Merry X'mas!". The need of info may be well
- covered by a simple question here in theis and other newsgroups.
-
- As a matter of fact, the Italian branch of Commodore told me that they
- planned to sell about 200 units of the A4000 in the october-december
- period. They actually sold over 600 by november, had pre-payment for over
- 300, and had to replan the sales for at least a 1000 units. That's in 3
- months time!
-
- Yes, 1000 units doesn't mean millions, but comparend on the sell of the
- A3000 that in about 2 years sold only 5000 units.. well, I'd say the A4000
- did pretty well!
-
- Now, I, since then, am working in a way to gather those info togheter. I'm
- making an interactive presentation, and if God helps me abit I'll be making
- a show with the Mandala in a Roman expo. With this I'd like to open 3
- stands (2 45's and one 30 Squared Meters). While 1 will be used for body
- painting, the other for a Videogame, and a third one (the smallest) will be
- used for showing the system as a mean of presenting figures. Actually it
- would be a GOOD idea to show what the Amiga can do and how the Amiga did in
- terms of sale's.
