Hello out there in Amiga land --

I was just looking at the September 1989 issue of Computer Graphics
World in which a number of Amiga fans respond to an earlier issue's
article on the Amiga. (The article had been mostly complimentary).   
In his response to the reader comments, the author made the statement 
that "The Amax Macintosh simulator is a neat hack, but it suffers from
a long list of incompatibilities with Macintosh software ..."  

Before I buy an Amiga, I want to know more about what this fellow
was talking about, because a Mac simulator is an important component
that I'm counting on being able to work with.

I've been told that the Amax simulator is 100% compatible with all
software which concientiously follows the Mac software developer 
guidelines, and that most reputable Mac software does, in fact, follow 
these guidelines.  This seems a far cry from "a long list of
incompatibilities with Macintosh software".  

What's the deal here?  Please send mail (perhaps in addition to
posting to the net) because I've got a lot of reading to do before
I can get to the end of this newsgroup.  Thanks much.
