Gee, guy! Calm down! It's just that nearly everything Richard was describing
is what the Amiga would be the perfect, low-cost solution for! In fact,
I think it might even be cost-effective for him to do just that (though
I do not have his original requirements in front of me). It was not intended
to be condescending or teasing in any way. But why walk a mile when a mere 
step is sufficient? As for Richard, he must weigh out the best solution based
on his own time/money/resource constraints. That was just merely a suggestion
and perhaps done in a jovial way. Is a sense of humor a crime around here?
Geez, lighten up! :-)

I've always wondered why some of the users of other computers get so
up-in-arms when you even *mention* a different machine. Grow up.
