I can almost gaurantee that the >4000 will be out in 6 months after that! :-) ] It is, naturally, a fact of the business that most companies introduce a new system every 1.5-3 years or so. For instance, the Amiga line: A1000 1985 A2000 1987 [A2500/20] 1988 [A2500/30] 1989 A3000 1990 So it's real likely, based on history, that there will be a new Amiga system or two introduced in the next year or two. Probably a new Mac, a new IBM, a new Compaq, a new Tandy, etc. as well. Not that any new introduction makes the old machine obselete, but obviously, you had better run out and get that A3000 very soon, so you can have it for a year or so before something better comes along :-). >John Sparks |D.I.S.K.
