Second: AmigaNet 2.0 is under development and they claim that under 2.0 you will be able to use the same ethernet board to run Novell, TCP/IP, and AmigaNet at the same time. So the Amiga could theoretically be on multiple networks from different vendors at the same time. Also you should be able to run X under AmigaDos environment. Sounds too good to be true to me!
