Well, my copy of PageSetter seems to handle this quite nicely, right
now.  Hey, look at how long the Mac's been out, they're on at least the
third revision, and they still don't have it right, the thing isn't
NTSC compatible, doesn't multitask, and it can't be hooked up easily
to anything other than that silly little 9" monitor.  

So hey, chill out.  They're two completely different machines.  Each
has its strengths and weaknesses.  If anything, the Amiga looks 
stronger; its already doing things a Mac can't do, and the Mac's had
a several year head start.
