Steel Talons NY Introduction

(1 / 1)


Rich announced in this morning's status meeting that the Steel Talons
Product Introduction Plan is offical and dates are confirmed:

	WHAT: Steel Talons Product Introduction
	WHEN: July 29, 1991
	WHERE: New York, Time-Warner Building
	How Many: (2) complete cabinets

(This is a one-city introduction and (2) cabinets is the entire requirement;
 we are not doing the 11-city road show that required (5) cabinets. I will
 still ask Mfg. to build enough PCB's for the originally planned (5) games)

Manufacturing is shut-down  (completely) 7/22 through 8/2 so facilities
to pack and ship the games will not normally be available. Options are:

1) Ship games Thurs. 7/18 w/o PCB's; Hand-carry PCB's to show. Assumes cabinets
   can be ready. I would want to send someone out 2 working days before the 
   show to install the PCB's and make sure everything is perfect. If the
   distibutor (?) holding the games for us is closed on weekends that means
   flying the PCB's to New York on Wednesday 7/24/91.

2) Make special arrangements to bring Mfg. staff in to arrange AIR shipment
   on Tuesday 7/23 for the NY Intro on Monday, 7/29.

I prefer option (1).  Comments?
Also, who is receiving the games in New York? A distributor?
