Personally, I think one should consider a Commodore 128, but then again
I think A SPARCstation has its good points, too.  Actually, if a person is
interested in real computing--the answer is to buy a Sequent main frame.
Anything less is just a weenie computer.  Though, really now, a Casio
Databank watch is all the computing power anyone REALLY needs. :^)

(sarcasm off)

Come on folks, let's stop trying to prove that the computer we bought is
the best there is.  Everyone has his needs and wants and a budget to fulfill
those needs.  Different computers are right for different people.  Let's
fill the bandwidth of this news group with more productive info than inter-
system flame wars.
