I would like to see UNIX ('AUX' or whatever they call the Apple variant)
running on a Max Classic.  Ho de ho!

Can you imagine, trying to use GREP, SED, VI, EMACS, or, well, anything,
really, without a CLI!

Sure, no problem. You're significantly fucked in the head if you think that
that A plain-jane MAC can out-grunt the Amiga, or that a super-MAC can
out-grunt an A3000. On ALL levels, disk speed, capacity, CPU speed, memory
addressing, multitasking capability, and above all, bang/$, your Mac's lose to
the Amiga.

You're living in a dreamworld. Or nightmare-world. Depending on what side of
reality that you're on!
