The typical computer lifetime is 5 years.  That means the A3000 will be
able to compete with IBM and Apple for the business market, if they
get their act together.  Lets hear it for a A3000 with 32 bit archtecture,
a Zorro II superset bus (able to plug in Zorro II cards), a fast 680?0 with
a math coprocessor slot, and 32 million colours with table look up.
