That's discriminating.  Wasn't most of the good parts of the Amiga born in the USA? Don't they care about us.

Most of them don't ship because they are either lazy or don't want to hassle with the post office trying to get things out of the country. I swear the post office sees a package going out of the country, they decide to try to x-ray it, dissect it, and look for WMD's or something.

Most respectable companies ship overseas

Atari only successful for the 2600 and very few of the 8 bits.  More people then anything had Apple II's and C='s.  A lot more people had Apple's and C='s.  When you get to the Atari ST's that got even more skewerd as Atari was probably more popular in Europe. I think I never really seen a ST in real life, but I saw a Amiga 500 at an Air Force base exchange. Next day it was gone.

I guess at that time people were quite content on slapping their 286's and other things to play with the ST's.  Newtek wouldn't have really played with the idea of such and expensive toy if there wasn't much use for them.

Okay I think this is getting personal. I'm just going to back away before I get the Amiga virus.

Amazon isn't respectiable... They tried to sue and take over a small independant women's operated book store because they had a name that was close to theres.  Even though this store was in business long before the internet was even a speck on the BBS scene, Amazon tried every dirty trick to get the judge to be in there favor.

I really don't respect Amazon.
