Many thanks to all of you people out there who responded. My decision has been narrowed down. I can get a 20M MsDos clone for $1300 for everything, an Amiga (2 drives color, no HD) for about $1400, or an Atari 1040 + 20M for about $1800. My problem is this. o Can anyone tell me any reason why I should get an MSDos machine other than the fact that it's the cheapest and has a hard disk. (I like hard disks, but we're thinking ahead here) If you love MsDos, make your point known and save me money! o The Amiga needs more memory. How much would it cost (ave.) to put another 512 on it? o I don't trust Atari. Is this unfounded. Jack T is there you know. I don't want another Apple on my hands...
