- Hey, Brian Baltzell, you mumbled somthing about Why are europeans dumb enough to
- buy amigas? on 28-Feb-96 13:10:13?
- BB> amiga's suck. They still can't do SVGA, they can't run netscape, they
- BB> can't run quake, they can't run nascar. But best of all they're way
- BB> overpriced. It seems like europeans are the real dummies, they bought
- BB> the dead body of commodore. Get with the program, get Wintel.

- This is what I like to see, a nice balanced argument. Seems you really
- researched the pros and cons and gave us your knowlegeable opinion...
-
- Now it's my turn. Amigas can't do SVGA? And? PC's can't do AGA. Same kind of
- resolutions, colours, more speed....
- They can't run netscape. Oh, damn shame. PC's won't run any of the 9 (?)
- browsers in development for the Amiga, such as Aweb (fast!), hot java etc...
- Can't run Nascar. Do I look like the kind of person who likes racing round and
- round and round looking at the slightly dodgy graphics? Andway, we have F1GP,
- and if you're bringing racing games into it neither PC or Amiga can run Sega
- rally, the ultimate game.
- Overpriced. Okay, yeah. One point to you, 3 to us.
-
- It's people like you that give arrogancy a bad name
