Message-ID: Date: 16 May 91 04:00:05 GMT Organization: Amiga Network Information Systems Lines: 24 Few things, someone asked for a good series of Mac jokes.. 1) I was told to "leave the lab and go back to class" because I called the Mac SE that the coordinator just bought for a little over $2000 a "Crapple Smackintosh", saying it was 9" black and white plasticised barf bag. Got kicked off a Mac board that demanded you post a message FIRST, in order to do any downloading.. Posted a message to the effect of: "Funny... I can go out and get an Amiga, with stereo sound, the only platform on the market that can actually MULTITASK peacefully, with over 4000 colors available at any resolution from 320 X 200 to 768 X 484, animation beyond compare with anything on the market, and ontop of that, EMULATE your Macintoshes at 2 to 5 times the speed of a Mac SE, on a screen as big as I want, being able to dump to videotape anytime I wanted, since my machine is still NTSC compat..So... FOr $500, I get a Mac, and an Amiga, while you pay $1500 just for the Mac SE alone. Nooooo, you didnt get ripped off." Arctangent
