[hello world]

After years of having a 128 and drooling of getting an Amiga, I
finally went ahead and bough a nice Amiga 2000 system.  (Thanks to
Commodore's Ed Discount, and thanks to Howard Diamond, for helping me
out... :-).  Now, the NEXT week my computer arrived, guess what, the
A3000 was announced... I guess some of us are meant to drool all their
lives!

Anyways, after reading all the posts about multitasking with Amiga, I
decided to give that a shot.  And guess what.  It didn't work.  I
mean, I had my amiga running this neat word processor thingie and that
was just fine.  But when I tried watching TV at the same time, thigs
beginng to be sort of difficult.  Then I tried Washing some dishes,
and NOGO!  Then when I tried doing Aerobics at the same time, thigs
were just impossible!  In conclusion.  Amiga or NO amiga, I cant
multatask!

(Well, ok, I could type a paper and chew gum at the same time, but I
can do that with a lowly C64 too!)
