I REALLY NEED reviews of each of the following computers (reviews not only about the machine but software too): Amiga, Atari 520, Mac, and the Tandy 2000. I need reviews in the following areas: cost, hardware (what comes with the base unit and what is available not just from one particular company)*, software (what comes with the machine and what is available)*, support (technical & demonstration for hardware AND software), bugs, and problems. *-Please limit the topic to hardware and software pertaining to art and industrial art (mostly drafting). No publications of replies will be made other than maybe the net if there is enough replies for a good-posting. I will accept any reviews dealing with any of the computers I have listed. ALL will be valuable to my report. Thank you, Gregg Thompson P.S. PLEASE do NOT post replies, instead mail them to me. {philabs, decwrl, ihnp4, ucbvax, seismo, microsoft}!decvax!cwruecmp!ncoast! greggt
