Please, don't take this as an attempt to start a stupid "my computer is better
than yours war."  I own a Mac, and am happy with it.  I suspect that the
people in this group are happy with their Amigas.  But I do have a couple
of questions for you.

1.  What made you choose the Amiga?

2.  What does it do well?

3.  What does it not do well?

4.  How does it differ from the Mac?

5.  What features do you make use of on a day-to-day basis?

6.  What features do you rarely use?

7.  What breaks, and how often?  (Like how often does it crash?)

I really am interested, because I hear that the Amiga is a nice machine.
Unfortunately, I have never had the opportunity to play with one.  I would
tell you all about the Mac, except that there are probably a large number
of people on this group who aren't interested.  If you like, you can e-mail
me.

Thanks!
