   Just a comment that I would like to make.  After seeing the IBM commerical
   all evening ( looks like they bought up all the comerical time ), the new
   machines' appearance are departed from the bulky PC/XT/AT boxy shape and
   have more aesthetic elements in it.

   On the other hand, the A2000 seems to inherit the PC/XT/AT awkward
   style.  

   As someone on this net said before, the A1000 *LOOKS* like a home computer
   The pencil holder, keyboard garage,etc are nice user-orientated features
   and that make the Amiga a joy to use.
