what's the trick?

(1 / 1)


Anybody know of a defined proceedure and designated personel to procure
the supplies and parts we need for development and those endless runs of
field test and sample units?  All I get is frustrated when I spend all
day trying to track down this person and that person and run up against
the enevitable shortages.  We are a production line in our own right with
all the games we build up here, but we simply don't have the stores or 
supply channels to support it.  If there aren't enough 512's for us to
do all those field tests then we have to cut back on field tests.  If there
are enough 512's then where are they?  Are they hard to get on purpose so
we will respect their value?  This is one game I don't enjoy.  (and it's
not just 512's)
