First of all, please don't flame me.  I am not writing this
letter to make anyone mad.  I am just ignorant.

I am in the market for a computer.  I am a failed computer
science major who went to economics.  I am looking for a 
fun computer that has a good interface and is a good Unix
platform.  I am also interested in Graphics and possibly
video.  Anyway, I saw a Next on campus and was very impressed.
However, when I mentioned this to some friends of mine, they
suggested that I look into an Amiga.  I would like someone
to rationally tell me what the strong points of the Next are
and what it does that no one else does.  I would also be 
interested in any faults it might have.  If anyone can
tell my reasons to buy a Next over an Amiga without starting
a flame war, I would appreciate those also.

Thankyou.
