OK, OK, OK, This has gone far enough! Let's admit it, both of these are great
machines. However, has anyone noticed what machines these are??? Has anyone
also noticed the name of this newsgroup?????? Could it be that we are here to
have serious discussions about APPLE II's????????? Maybe we could like MOVE
these discussions elsewhere? I cannot do KILL files here (on braindead CMS),
and it is a PAIN IN MY LOWER EXTREMITIES TO HAVE TO SLOG THROUGH 18,000,000,000
messages debating the merits and flaws of 2 machines that are NOT Apple II's!
When it was Apple II vs. Mac, FINE! At least there is a II in there somewhere!
BAnd when it was Amiga vs. GS, Fine! Last I knew the IIGS was still a II (at
least for a little while longer!), so that was an appropraite (albiet not
very newsworthy) discussion for this newsgroup! But Amiga vs. Macintosh is NOT!

{Flame Off}

PS: Sorry about that folks, I guess I lost my cool a little, but come off it,
this is getting to be just a LITTLE ridiculous now, isn't it? The first few
posts were interesting and informative, but after the info has come across
the net 800 or 900 times, it is no longer news. After all, isn't this a
NEWSgroup?
