While picking up my Commodore color monitor last week, the
dealer told me that Commodore has been having reliability
problems.  He said that Commodore has a 20% return
rate for their 64 versus Atari at about 5%.  He also said
the return rate for the coleco adam was 80% and that he no longer
will sell it.

These numbers weren't just for his store, but for sales nationwide.
