That's right. The ST is better for AT&T, since it needs a real operating
system badly. The AMIGA doesn't need one since it already has one. There's
no point in putting UNIX head-to-head with TRIPOS on the same machine. UNIX
is the better O/S, but only by a factor of 2 or so. I hardly think most people
would even notice the difference... after all, they seem to consider GEM/CPM
nearly as good or better than Intuition, and it's not even in the running.
