I might add here that the cost of a tricked out Amiga is often lower
than the cost of a "good" peripheral for your workstation.  Compare
the price difference of a SS-2GS with that of a 2GX, for instance.
The differential in the monitor and board cost would easily pay for
a 2500HD or 3000.

And just think of what you could buy for the cost of a TAAC board...

This posting was prompted by the sudden realization that our group
often wanted "cool graphics", but not "realtime cool graphics", thus
making my Amiga very popular. :-)
