Lines: 22 As far as NeXT systems go. I just had the pleasure of installing a Moniterm full page display (A2024 clone) onto a friend's A3000 (yes she has 9MB RAM, and 100 MB HD). After seeing AmigaDOS 2.0 running on the 1000x800 display it occurs to me that those of us who have been using our machines on the standard color displays really haven't seen what our Amigas are capable of as a productivity machine. This 4 grey monitor with that resolution is incredibly fast (no you can't see the four panels updating now) and looks just wonderful. It really is a workstation class machine. The A2024 (the Moniterm's smaller and cheaper cousin) looks like a very good alternative for those interested in a quality productivity environment. The A2024 also works in all machines. This big screen and seeing the amount of software that already takes advantage of it has really changed the way I percieve this line of machines. -- ************************************************************************ ************** donb@bushido.uucp *********** ************** "My Opinions are my own, no one else's" *********** ************** Organizational Affiliation: *********** ************** CreativEdge Systems *********** ************** An Amiga Business Multimedia Developer *********** ************************************************************************
