Nice arguement Keith, and good points on the software mentioned. I think the man wanted to say in a since, that its been two years since the GS has been out and we feel like we are getting stomped by other machines. I have a lot of Amiga ziods and Ibm nuts to put up with, what can I say I'm stuck in Arkansas. I have been hearing about all of these great features that the Amiga can do and, telling people that the GS can do it too, but its just not as impressive. It was also kind of hard to tell them the GS only ran at 2.5Mhz. I have argued them all until we are all tired of argueing(sp?), and I still come back the next day to tell them the newest thing in the Apple // world. I would like multi-tasking mainly because I would like to play a game while I am d/loading a big program from a bbs. The main thing I want from the GS+ is speed. I could give up all the roumours(sp?) for 7 - 8 Mhz. Thats all I ask for. I have heard that there were not enough reliable 65816's around, but how did AE get it to work? And can't Apple do the same thing? I like both of my Apples eventhough I don't buy non-GS programs anymore, and I will continue to argue with these jerks until Apple comes out with a new // or until I can afford a MAC II. Even then I will still like my older Apples like //+ owners do. I have a side line comment here. I think Commodore is releasing too many Amigas. They don't let any of their machines mature, and people are still playing with the thing. One of these jerks I argue with keeps saying the Amiga is taking part of the Mac's market, and he does not even own an Amiga. I just have to tell him thats why we are a multi-million dollar company. Well I have said enough, I will talk to you later. Just remember, We were here second and the first one went for busniess market. Everybody else learned from our mistakes, but we are still alive and kicking. Robert Brown BITNET: RXBROWN@UALR APPLELINK: RODPHD
