	The last I'll say on this (since it's not really comp.arch material).
The reason Commodore isn't pushing Amigas for X is that X is available from
a third-party (Dale Luck of GfxBase, Inc, a former Commodore employee and
current contractor), not Commodore itself.  Dale definitely pushes X for
Amigas.  Beyond that, I'm not in marketing, and don't speak for them.
