Hi Again,

    I was recently handed a copy of an article in the March '89 issue of
AV Video magizine comparing the Amiga 2000 to a MacII. The first thing I
noted was the editors comment at the start of the article quuoted without
permission as follows:

	"In April 1988 AVV asked its readership to indicate their 
	interest in future articles on the Amiga computer and peripheral
	products. The response was strong, and AVV will begin publishing
	a regular column on Amiga in April, written by Mike Wells. If you
	have expertise in this field and want to contribute an article,
	please write to: Sam Stalos, Editor, AV Video, 11034 Dennis Road,
	Dallas, TX 75229..."

    Here is another chance for us users to push/enhance our favorite computers
fame and glory. How about it you experts, show Sam what you can do!

    Other interesting quotes (taken out of context ala B*TE) :

    "The Amiga....,is still the only computer capable of true mulltitasking..."
    "Magni ...genlock...Sales to professionals has been brisk..."
    "Tha Amiga sounds like a great computer, and it is."

    on comparing Amiga and macII:

    "For picture quallity the Mac II is clearly superior...." Boo!!!!
    " On a speed basis, The Amiga wins out(if configured with Ronin's
      68020/68881 card)."
    "For price comparison,...In all, a fully equipped Mac II will set 
     you back about $11,500, while a comparably equiped Amiga will cost
     you approximately $7,900."
    

    Well thats all for now.
