- Rick, you didn't leave a real E-mail address, I was going to mention
- I have an A3000 to sell, as do others on this group. There
- is an Amiga Gnu distribution, anything that came with your computer
- would already be out-of-date, so why bother. I've heard real Emacs
- can suck the life out of any computer, but go ahead. You can
- also install real Unix via FreeBSD or whatever. However the
- overall thrust of native amiga compilation is pretty unix-like.
-
- Anywsy back to my point, A3000. If you've already got a VGA
- monitor, $750 will buy a lot of computer. If you need $200-300
- for a monitor, we're talking less, of course.
