Question: Will we ever see an Amiga 2500 (UX) in *real* life [I don't care about any of those Amiga 2500 (UX/AT)'s I can marvel - or don't marvel - at at exhibitions, the same is true for all those machines sitting around at CBM in their labs ...]? What price will we have to pay for? I agree, the Amiga 2000 *is* a great machine [No, I *don't* own an Amiga 2000 - I've a ST], but I'm not going to switch to it, unless I know I can get it as a 2500 (UX)! > -- > +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ > | TYMNET:JMS@F29 CA:"POPJ P," UUCP:{ames|pyramid}oliveb!tymix!antares!jms | > | INTERNET: (Office-1.ARPA is no more) PHONE:Joe Smith @ (408)922-6220 | > +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ ------------------ Smile, tomorrow will be worse! -------------- Email: dkhusema@immd4.informatik.uni-erlangen.de Or: {pyramid,unido}!fauern!faui44!dkhusema Mail: Dirk Husemann, Aufsess-Str. 19, D-8520 Erlangen, West Germany Phone: (Home) +49 9131 302036, (Business) +49 9131 857908 -- Beam me up, Scotty, there's no intelligent life down here! -- --------------- My opinions are mine, mine, mine ---------------
