Being able to run 3 different varieties of software on one machine is a strong inducement to purchase! (i.e., you can still use your dBase database, write your papers on Mac Word 3.0, and use MaxiPlanPlus for your spreadsheet; all on an Amiga!) (Yes, for those of you who haven't heard; the Magic Sac is coming for the Amiga.!!) (And, like PC-Ditto, the Transformer runs most PC software, but slowly. The Sidecar/A2088 allows PC software to run at full speed, con- currently with Amiga software...)
