IBM compatibility. Simple. Plug in an ATonce for, what is it, $300? This
gives you an 8mhz 80286 processor that can co-exist with the Amiga's 68000
processor (i.e., you can run AT programs and Amiga programs at the SAME TIME).

Sounds preferable to a $150 software-only product to me, hmm? Considering
that the software-only products that I've seen are slower than molasses...
