Let's grow up, huh guys?  You choose a computer for various reasons.  A Mac II
is attractive not only because of its adequate hardware support, but also
because of the software environment, which allows users to combine various
programs, tools, and desk accessories in creative ways.  (Unix provides even
greater flexibility.)  When the software environment on the Amiga is as
attractive as it is on the Mac, I'll gladly switch.

By the way, I've got a 24-bit color card on my Mac II, along with a host of
"useful" desk accessories.  You might also notice that 4096 color displays
aren't much good for high quality color images, and BLIT chips aren't any
help when performing ray tracing and radiosity calculations.
