Also, a judge OKed the 386 clones since 386 was only an Intel designation and not a Trademark (or something like that) so 386's are going to get real cheap and C= or someone like Atonce will have a cheap 386 emulator available for Amiga.... ....so Mac system 7, 386/MS-Dos, UNIX, AmigaDos.... I'd say the Amiga 3000 will just about have it covered! (still won't have Improve though) :( And I think it is important that many of the current Amiga owners will have Amiga Unix available to them. The price of ram and hard-drives is dropping and it will not be a big step to upgrade. Amiga Unix already has a base... maybe a reletively large base before too long. And how delightful will it be to be the proud owner of a NeXT when NeXT goes belly-up year after NeXT? And I just don't like Steve Jobs. NCW
