Well, ya' the guy said that if all you care about was number crunching, go
with the i386 box.  But, would you have all the features you have with an
Amiga?  Nope.
 
The really important thing is the fact that the GVP equipped Amiga kicked the
NeXT's, the Apollo 2500's, and the Mac ]['s BUTT on raw mathematical
performance.  What's the most impressive here is that's still a 32-bit CPU
talking through a 16-bit bus, where the other three machines are full
32-bit...in the eyes of most computer "purists", the GVP boards are
kludges...but they're kludges that work, obviously.
