Despite the original message's plea for just opinions on getting an Amiga 500 for games, this is starting to degenerate into another flame-war. People are not reading the articles, drawing conclusions, and I see an imminent deluge of uninformed articles flowing from these message threads! Could we kill this thread, before it gets out of hand? Or at least limit the newsgroups to at most two. We're even bickering about hard drive speeds, which are VERY SUBJECTIVE to the HD manufacturer, NOT THE COMPUTER. My hard drive has an access of 19ms, but when I hook up another, slower 40ms access time drive, of course it slows--but does that make the same machine slower? Not a chance. I hope this doesn't provoke flames, but instead limits this thread. It's just an enormous pain to pick out four articles you're interested in out of a glut of fifty or sixty... :-)
