Speaking of 123, does anyone at all know that the Amiga with a
bridgeboard is THE ULTIMATE platform to run 123??? Proof:
123 knows about a dual monitor mode. You keep your spreadsheet with
all the figures in text mode on one monitor and have the graphics
representation of these figures on another monitor in some graphics
mode. The graphics can be set up a way so that it automatically changes
when the figures change.
ONLY ON THE Amiga you can do this on ONE SINGLE monitor! You
configure 123 for this dual mode, set its graphics up for CGA mode
(well, here the bridgeboard way doesn't shine soooo bright :-) and
open both a mono and a color PC window. If you adjust the sizes of
these windows properly and drag the text screen down, then you can
input your figures at the lower end of your screen and watch the
graphics change accordingly at the top of the screen! This always
makes up for a real good demo on fairs.
