Unlike Bill McEwen, Barry Altman is more than willing to converse with  people and answer their questions. I told him I would keep our conversation completely confidential and he told me, "I wish you wouldn't. Please share anything I tell you because I want people to know the truth.". So here I am. Barry seemed to be frustrated by the herd mentality of the forum communities and quite frankly, I am too. Yeah many of us have had ill dealing with the likes of Doomy but Barry has slighted no one. He's trying to make interesting computers with the Commodore name.


Bill McEwen was also more than willing to converse in the beginning, and we all know how that turned out!

Of course we are not the target group.  If we have 4,000 active users world wide at this point in time, we are doing pretty good.  If CUSA sold to each and every one of us, it would be a financial disaster.  They need to sell atleast 20,000 units to make any significant investment like a new all-in-one case worth while.  I know it's a tough thing to get ahold of, but what we represent as a market is not economically viable.   We are too small in numbers even if we all bought a given product.  Given today's economy, it would have to be a very inexpensive item at that..


Really?!? Those must be incredibly expensive stickers!
