- I went to the Omaha "AUoH" user's group metting tonight. I actually met a
- real Amiga commercial developer in person for the first time -- *AND LIVED*!!!
- :-) :-)
-
- Anyway, that was just an aside. I heard tonight that it looks like INFO
- magazine really is done in for good. Next Sunday, September 20 1992, at
- 9:00 AM in Iowa City, INFO will be auctioning off everything. There is said
- to be about $150,000 worth of stuff they will be auctioning, and I may be
- attending. In case some of you people want to meet me for the first time,
- I will be wearing a cardinal-colored ISU jacket (if it's cool enough for a
- jacket) and will have about $10,000 in cash with me to purchase stuff.
-
- Since INFO appears to be auctioning everything they have, it looks like
- they won't be coming back. This is really unfortunate.
