Oh man! I REMEMBER VOBIS! I'm having a hard time remembering exactly where,
but there was a shop down off Kurfuerstendamm in Berlin that I *think* was
Vobis! Was that the first shop, or was it in (then) W. Germany?

They were real Apple-heavy if I'm correct...

I remember Dipa computer got busted for copyright issues.

but I don't pass that disdain on to individuals outside of Microsoft.
