Livonia, MI 48154 (313) 261-0550 Archi Biggs Back in November of last year, this company offered an "Amiga 1000 upgrade to a Amiga 2000". The deal was (1) old Amiga 1000 + $1000 bucks = Amiga 2000 + Bridgecard for 1 cent more. Well they got my Amiga 1000, and I got the 2000 but ITS JULY and I have not received my Bridgecard yet!!!. 86 other customers are in the same waiting game. Word has it that this company may be in a cash basis with most vendors and that CBM is aware of the problem but what can they do to remedy this problem. What can we customers do, get a credit? I would prefer to no longer do business with this company and other off-the-shelf products are of no interest to me. I want my Bridgecard. I know that the deal was struck between Amiga World and its customers, but this was an authorized CBM trade-in right?? Could someone from CBM at least advise us customers what we can do; a half year is an awfully long time to wait for a Bridgecard. -- -- David Whitlock internet: whitlock@tc.fluke.COM uucp: {decvax!sun,ucbvax!sun,uw-beaver,ssc-vax,allegra,lbl-csam}!fluke!whitlock John Fluke Mfg.
