Isn't this a new class of personal computers? Well that was a bit of rhetoric. I don't have a hard time seeing, just believing that the Amiga has been around for 2 years and somebody might wake up to the fact that you get a HELL of a lot of compute power for next to nothing. If you have tons of money, well waste it. > > What it is is a personal workstation. How about powerstation. Everybody makes a "workstation", even Apple and IBM will someday. Soon they will even multi-task. Gee Whiz! Im almost impressed. Don't get me wrong, I respect Apple for the few seconds they tried to win my heart with beating huge blue to death, but in the end, The Song Remains the Same! Sorry Marketroids, you lost! Bigtime. > The first. We're all pioneers. It's amazing how few of us have died horrible > cybernetic deaths like poor old Mike Meyer. Fear not. There will never be an Amiga again. The people have the power now! As for me, burn-out is near, I have CBM to thank for that! I made my decisions long ago. I can handle it. I got what I wanted, and a whole lot more. > Workstation: totally smooth multitasking, graphics, windowing, etc... You are not supposed to use the "s" word, smooth. You might give some slumbering giant a clue! Shame. 8^) And the "I" word. Integrated. And Bamble on.
