I think people will always be willing to buy the most advanced computers they can afford. It'll take alot more power, for example, than the A3000 has to do truly realistic games. It'd take probably more than a Cray Y-mp. I know it would, in fact. So, there's no end to even the home market. As technology cheapens, people will keep buying better and better systems. And one more thing - I want 24-bit standard before I buy another Amiga. Right now I have a 1000 with 1.25megs RAM and a 40mg HD. As soon as there's real support for 24-bit in an Amiga, I'll be the FIRST to buy it. I may break down and get a 3000 and get one of the third party boards... -- // | Email: mnc@turing.acs.virginia.edu // | \\ // Where the REAL power is. | From the desk of Michael Chapman \X/ IBM, Mac, get REAL! |
