Message-ID: <222.25fd0a18@waikato.ac.nz> Date: 13 Mar 90 01:56:23 GMT Lines: 13 Rich the #$%@ states that because his Amiga 1000 cost over 4000 4 years ago and because his IBM today costs 3600 that the IBM is better bang per buck! What a wally. Did you price a '386 machine 4 years ago. If you had been able to pick one up, impossibnle as the 386 wasn't released then, it would have been well over $20,000. Bit of a gap don't you think! The Amiga 1000, if it were still selling, would be about the same or less than the A500, only $1500(NZ)!
