I agree that Commodore should not be too willing to jump into head
on competition with some of the big boys like Sun and Apollo.  But
they sure as h*ll had better have an ace up their sleeve in a few
years time when the price margin between PCs and WorkStations   
becomes so minimal that people would soon spend $2500 on a mind-
blowin' workstation then spend $1000 on a mind-blowin Amiga
4000.  Think about it C= ... the price IS coming down, so you
guys better be ready for it, whether you care to admit it or not
you are either going to have to jump in or go under.  Ne ce pas ?
