aussie cbm was big. lots of 500s and 2000's. I dont recall seeing mayn 4k or 1200's. We had a good well supported magazine Australian Commodore Amiga Review. Stores actually had amiga sections!

CBM Australia suffered the same deals as CBM usa, mainly fuck all or piss poor marketing, and being so far away, had little ability to get stock on shelves when it was needed (xmas time etc).

CBM Australia was really strong but got no support from USA HQ
