TANGENT APPROACHING! ***] (*** BY the way.. have you checked MacGeek (The Macintosh Weekly Magazine) :-) lately.. People sell 50Mhz MacIIFX repackages with 128MBytes of RAM (using 16 MB simms.) Show me an Amiga that can currently be expanded to 128Megs of RAM. Knowing Apple products, that Mac will probably cost more than a fully- loaded Lexus LS400, and won't be anywhere near as well built. Secondly, what in the world do you need 128 Meg of RAM for? Even UNIX doesn't suck up that much memory. It sounds to me like a computer version of the Spruce Goose. Big, ugly, awkward and useless. .signed, / Andy Patrizio | Bitnet: pyc136@uriacc.bitnet \ / University of Rhode Island | Internet: pyc136@uriacc.uri.edu \ / | ARPA: pyc136%uriacc@brownvm.brown.edu \ \ // Amiga... what else? | Usenet: uunet!rayssd!idsvax!andypo / \ \\// | UUCP: andypo@idsvax.uucp / \ \/ "What a thrilling life..." -- Precious Metal /
