Today it's March 4th, and I'm sitting infront of
my Computer writing Articles for my favourite
mag 'SUICID'. Again it'll be a boring Article,
but who cares...

Since ca.4 weeks I'm a proud owner of the newest
masterpiece of  COMMODORE.  The new  AMIGA 1200.
Perhaps, if  ya know me,  ya know that I sold my
good old A500 on Dez 21st 1992. I think nothing
in my life will be soooo horrible as the feeling
I had, as I unpluged my friend an gave it to a
stranger, for a small ammount of money (SNIEF).
Anyway, that was Dez 21st.

Smart as I am I had called a company called 
'INTERCOMP' and I've asked someone if they had
some A1200 left. "Of course, we have 30 Comps
left",said a very nice woman. "Do ya wanna order
one?" That happed on Dez 20th, and I hadn't sold
my computer yet, and  so I told her that I would
call the next day to order one. And I don't know
how often I said to her: "Please lay one of them
aside, I'll call tomorrow." And she always ans-
wered: "Yes, of course, Yes, of course, ..."
  
The next day, it was Dez 21st, after I had sold my A500, I called, as
promised, INTERCOMP. "Hello? Yeah, I wanna order a A1200. WHAAAAAT?!?!?
There's no one left? But yesterday - 30 Comps - till how can I get one -
WHAAAAAT? End of Feb? ... KRKRSCHSTTUSSISLOSH ... TUUUT ... TUUUT ...

Ya can believe me. 2 month without computer. Oh, I know. Some of you 
will say "such a maniac - a computer addicted". Yep, I'm addicted. And
I'm proud of that! Anyway, 2 month without computer (and 2 weeks hollidays)
were definately too long for me. I drove to Germany - "Sorry, no A1200
left", phoned through whole Austria, and everywhere the same answer:

           W E * D O N'T * H A V E * A * A M I G A * 1 2 0 0

But guess where I found my honey .... 
                                      This secret will never be solved!

Yep, that was my short storry about 'How to buy a A1200'.

At the end a short message to COON-O:
How can I be fined for parking my horse wrong infront of the Saloon?
Don't ya know the old wisdom from the chief of the Indians:

           *** DONT'T DRING AND DRIVE - TAKE DRUGS AND FLY ***

O.k. That about covers it. By from the great'n'brave chief of the Indians:
                                                               GOLMO/MTU
