Can somebody tell me a few things about the Amiga?  I'm trying to decide on
a system for home.  

Mainly, is it compatible with some big-time system.  I see it has a M68000,
does that mean it's Macintosh compatible?  

What kind of really keen features does it have?  How's the keyboard, CRT, etc.

I kind of favor the 80186/80286 species - how does the M68000 compare?  I've
heard the 80186 can rival a VAX's performance.

Thanks in advance.......{john hayes}
