For whatever people think of ebay I have to again suggest that it is an
*excellent* way to get to a perhaps "newbie" crowd; people who pick the
machines up at Goodwill etc Or just started collecting them for fun. My
expereince is that there are a lot of those folks & I have suggested to
joko in the past that he try putting a game or something up at a set low
price w/ a link to his for sale page. Condier it a 10 day el-cheap ad -
.25 and who knows how many a2 users will see it & explore? I have had
great luck. It is not a surprise that many folks, casual users,  dont know
where to look for software & so look to ebay.  I suggest it just cuz I
would like to see good people who still support our favorite machine find
a little return satisfaction/ market share here even if just a few copies
of something, it gets the word out. I know I will be using ebay to
disperse some stuff now that my a2 lab is gone, sniff sniff.....
