  12. No offense, but i'd probably buy a PC instead.  A Pentium PC would most 
  13. likely come with PCI slots, the Amiga only has 16 bit slots at best.  
  14. What if I want to plug in a faster video card?  I'd love to have a fast 
  15. bridgeboard but if it's not expandable, no way.  Maybe if an optional 
  16. external PCI expansion box were available...
