Re: [AGA-mcm] Media Sales Tallies

["S. Hieber" <shieber@yahoo.com>]

Coming in like a sloth on this but I thin the sales are due
tothe quality, building a rep onthe quality, and
undoubtedly the Amano bit is a factor. But if it was mostly
just Amano, then the 2001s would be selling jsut as well.
So it's not just Amano, and I think that's an important and
good thing.
