Shephard) Distribution: usa Organization: Amdahl Corporation, Sunnyvale CA Lines: 23 Well each machine has its merits. The way you should choose a machine is to find the software you plan to run, look at what you might want to run in the future and buy the machine that runs it. No one machine does all tasks well. Find a machine that will do the task you wish to do well. So now that you have figured out what software you want to run; does it run on a Mac, Atari, PC clone, Amiga, or NeXT. I personally own an eight bit Atari 1200XL (haven't touched it in a long time), 386sx PC clone (I happen to like it) running Win 3.0, and I'm waiting for my NeXT to be delivered. Once again one machine is not suited for every task. Find a machine that runs the software you like and buy it.
