   <chuckle> The A3000 can handle 128Meg or RAM...without even blinking!  In
   fact...it's expandable to to 1.8 GIG!!!  (a GIG, for you mac folks who
   never deal with such numbers, is 1024 Meg).  That's real memory, on the
   bus!

   NOW...you show ME a mac that can be expanded to 1.8 GIG...now or in the
   future...virtual mem or otherwise!  Give up...pull down "shutdown" for
   the last time...get an amiga 'cause you really HAVE been missing something!


You Amiga users are going to have to try and understand that the A3000
is probably not the last computer that you are ever going to own, and
there really isn't a need to have 1.8GB of memory expansion(128MB
maybe).  In a couple of years(I say two) that A3000 is going to look
like a toy.
