Wow! what luck I have this week! I was just at the NEW Manhattan Apple store in NYC (The Glass cube one) and ran into Steve Jobs! he was not supposed to be there and was sitting in a corner examinng customers..........not even the employees knew...............they seemed to think he was there to watch them so they looked a little scared. But he wasnt there for that.....he was just doing a walk by. The customers were going about there business.....but I spotted him...........Imade sure it was him before I approached him to say hello. I also didnt want to embarrass him so I walked calmly to him.
The conversation went well! we started talking about Computers............and of course eventually I got to the Amiga. He definitely knows alot about the Amiga! He soon realised that I did too......way more than him.............................I couldnt help it and mentioned Microsoft may be interested in My CD32.I told him I wasnt sure why............He tried to make it unoticable, but I could tell he was a little bit bothered..........................I showed him pictures online including my Amiga 600........wich he recognised and knows well...........but never saw a black model like mine and as cool looking............he Offered to buy it!
I didnt know what to say.....so I acted like I didnt hear him................he asked me how much I want for it.........and I said I didnt know.......it has a few problems............and he said he will offer me $350....right on the Spot.
He gave me a Check! I dont know if it is real yet since its Sunday...........but will cash it tommorrow!
He asked me to just drop it off at the Apple store.and he will ask management to ship it to him.
What a strange week! is this a C-O-N-spiracy?

Well, I hope whatever it is stays on the east coast. I am thousands of miles away on the west coast. Do you think I will be safe here?
I did not vote for Bush either. I hope that is a plus. _________________

Thank God our prevailing wind comes from the Pacific. We stand a good chance of fending it off, but might blow it towards Europe. Shields Up! _________________
