ACT NORMAL, YOU FOOL! I LIKE Unix cause its LIKE AN AMIGA, Multitasking????????????? If you call an Amiga a Multitasking machine, what are UNIX machines???? (GOD??) Commodore wasn't even born when Unix was invented!!!!!!!!!! You said the same as in the banana-commercial: " Don't call a Chiquita a banana." Any normal machine (Yes, even an ATARI ST) can perform multitasking. Multi- tasking is always made by the software, not the hardware! And besides: The Macintosh has probably the best software ever written on a computer. And IMHO it has the still the best graphics manager (GM(Not the Trade Mark)). And I found out for myself that a CLI is the best thing you can have. There are now coming some good GM(ntm) on the market, but untill there is a superb one I still stick with my very simple CLI.
