- CompuCom USA has gone out of business. I was REALLY pissed, to say the least,
- when I heard it, because I purchased one of the unfinished STAR's, and now
- am basically screwed...
-
- Anyway, on the lighter side... CompuCom Europe is still going strong, and
- they are sending ROM upgrades to those of us poor American folk that are
- sitting here wondering what happened. I had the address right up till the
- time that my hard drive crashed... SOMEBODY out there must have it
- somewhere. I have also heard that there is someone in this country that
- keeps in contact w/ CompuCom Europe and gets all the ROM upgrades and will
- burn proms for ya if you send him a couple. I had his address too... :^)
