Well, I have already seen the Amiga (at SigGraph up in MacroMind's suite)
and beleive me, it is nothing to talk about.  The only things that it can do
better than a Mac would make a great game, but nothing more.  To give you an
idea; Commodore rants about their "multitasking".  I had this "multitasking"
demonstrated for me.  It ran two processes simultaneously and they took four
times as long as if the processes had been run consecutively.  Some
multitasking; it's there, but no one will want to use it.
