That "guy" who owns Computers 'R' Us has a name--it's Roger.  And he has
been running his business out of his house for at least 2 or 3 years...
I don't think he is any closer to bankruptcy now than he was then...
and just as real a dealership now than it has ever been...

And I haven't been in Double E for a couple of months, but when I was there
they had a TON of Amiga stuff out... They had a Toaster and DCTV on display,
a 3000, several 500s, a CDTV, and a lot of software... I purchased Pro Calc
from them for a GREAT price, by the way...  (it was the only copy they had
left, and had been used for demonstration a couple times, so it was open, and
I got it for less than I've seen it available by mail.), and only 2 PC
Clones on display (don't remember the brand, but they looked cheap.)
They also had a bunch of C-64 stuff, much to my surprise... I would highly
doubt that in a few months, they would go from a rather well-stocked C=
haven to a store that acts as if the Amiga doesn't exist anymore (although
I wouldn't doubt that they might have cut back on what they have in stock 
Amiga-wise and started carrying more HP stuff and/or clones to make some more
 money...)

Hi all.
Does anyone out there know what percentage of Amiga users worldwide or
in North America use OS 2.04?
Also, how many Amigas are out there? Last I heard was 3 million, but
that was a couple of years ago, and I heard that sales have grown. Is
there an accurate recent count?
Any replies would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Here too.  I list of the fonts, for each font there is a list
of 'styles' to them where applicable (bold, italics, ,etc), a list for
each font for size (although these do not seem tobe arbitray like the Amiga)
and a graphics window showing 'abcdABCD' for each fonts.  There are
also font-independant option like regardless of the fonts, making it
in outline form, underlined,m or with a strike out.

Fonts are nice, but my 9 pinprinter sure ain't no LASER printer.  Sigh.

Anyone got a laser printer to donate? :)

>And it's system-wide and standard as of 2.0.  :)

That's cool.  Another question: do applications need to be 'written for'
AmigaDOS 2.0 to take advantage of these fonts? Or to take advantage of
other AmigaDOS neat-o whiz bang things?  I guess this is a question of
the similarities between earlier versions.

There are Zorro III cards available?  What are they?

BTW, the real "stupidity" (I wouldn't use the word "stupid" myself) of
the 16 bit slot argument is that there's only ISA (16 bit) and EISA
(32 bit), and it makes little sense to put costly EISA slots in what
appears to be a low-end machine.  There's little likelyhood that users
will install any expensive EISA cards.

   What you saw was probably not Links 386 Pro.  It was probably the older 
and weaker VGA version running on the SVGA machine.  The fact is, the Amiga
version of Links has a screen resolution of 320x200, which is exactly the
resolution of most C-64 games.  Links Pro 386 has a screen resolution of 
640x480, which is almost five times as many pixels.  Links 386 Pro also uses
a color palette that is almost as wide compared to the Amiga's color palette
as the Amiga color palette is compared to the C-64 palette.  

   Since it is obvious that you have not seen Links 386 Pro, just take my
challenge: pull out the issues of Discover and AmigaWorld that I mentioned, 
open them to the pages I mentioined, and compare the screen shots head-to-
head, then tell me with a straight face that I am wrong.  I most certainly 
am not.

Just how many PCs out there are fast enough to handle the kind of information
you're talking about moving around? And of that amount of PCs how many have
anything better than a dog-slow Trident card? 
Don't get me wrong, I'm not a fanatical Amiga owner - I own a 386-40 with 8M
and OS/2 - but you obviously haven't thought about it. What kinds of games
(other than golf) are going to be acceptable at SVGA speeds? I'm not interested
in having to buy an ATI Graphics Ultra just to run games.

Another PC company in hot water is Northgate, which almost was bought out
by Everex.  They lost $10 million in the first half of the year, laid off
90 people (one of them my wife), and the investors who bailed it out to
the tune of $3 million dollars for a majority share of the company ousted
all of the top management except for the founder.  The PC market is almost
a commodity market, and in the hardware side of it, there's little margin
for profit.

    Indeed.  The "Processor Direct Slot" you are referring to is a local system
resource, residing on the local system bus.  Yes, you can get the benefit of
a processor upgrade, or one expansion device interfaced here.  However, that
is as far as it goes.  A full expansion backplane would allow far more devices
connected to the host system, rather than a single item.

I know of no presentation program that forces you to do this. Most of the
time, ARexx scripts are used for interapplication communication (i.e. a
simple, easy to use program is used to control a complex one through it's
ARexx port) or for superior scripting and the ability to run DOS programs
from a pretty GUI shell.

You don't HAVE to use ARexx to do anything to put together a great
presentation. It is just there if you NEED it. When you need to do
something like this with HyperCard, you had better be a good Mac
programmer, because you are going to have to write yourself an XCMD module
to handle your custom application. XCMD's are not written in HyperTalk
either. Having ARexx is a big plus for Amiga multimedia and hypermedia
presentations - it is not a deficiency as you are trying to make it.

Anybody distributing a presentation that relies on assumed paths, and does

cannot find files if they are in the wrong location either. I know this
from daily, personal experience, so you are just dead wrong in this matter.

Hey, hang on there. Only 250 dealers in the whole of the U.S. ? Now I understand
this infamous American drug problem. I'd blame George Bush, the Japanese
and Commodore (have I left anyone out ? ).

I bet I*M have more dealers, maybe Marc should check out the guys with 
blue suits.

     Hello.  I am looking for information on the use of the Commodore Amiga series of personal computers in educational settings, either in labs or ownership by students and teachers- on all levels of learning.  References with email addresses or phone numbers would be great.

	I can be reached as elb1@cornell.edu.

	Thank you in advance for your help

	Eric Beyer

	PS: I need this information to try to establish to the powers that be here that the Amiga is more than just two or three hackers on our campus so that  they'll start helping new Amiga users with questions and things.
