- It seems that you people still seem to whine about Amiga this and Amiga
- that, When INTEL came out with the 80286, everyone went out and bought
- one. When INTEL came out with a 386, everyone junked or sold there old
- 286 and bought the 386, the same for the 486 and also the Pentium. When
- the next X86 processor comes out, or whatever designation it happens to
- be, the mass public will buy that one also. If you ALL remember, when the
- 486 came out it was touted as a SERVER ONLY Processor. The exact same was
- said for the Pentium. Jeez people, I just hate to hear people bitch all
- day about developers 'FORGETTING' the A1000/500 WB 1.0/1.1/1.2/1.3/2.0
- people, well, that is life in the big city, technology advances, and
- people advance with the technology. If this were not true then we all
- would still be living in caves and eating raw meat.
