- I personally like the looks of the preproduction Walker. I think that
- AT needs to distance the Amiga from the rest of the PC pack. I doubt
- that they are going to break into the business world with the Amiga,
- no matter how much cash they put into an advertising campaign. If the
- Amiga as a hardware platform is to survive, it should be distinctly
- different from other PC's, and should play off of advantages that it
- has (should have?), drawing attention to itself in any way possible.
- After all, many of the high-end workstations such as SGI and Sun have
- had rather unusual shapes and colors. I think that many people
- associate this with "power".
