  17. What do you mean with "buying a PC". A PC could mean "Personal Computer", so
  18. you could get any Amiga - with wordprocessor, image-/paint-progs, spreadsheet
  19. and internet it IS a personal computer. Or you mean the MS-Dos/Windows/Intel-
  20. -platform. The "PowerPC" is a chip, like the 680x0 (recent amigas) or the x86
  21. (Dos, Windows), only better. The PowerAmiga will supposedly/hopefully appear
  22. in 1997 and will use the PowerPC-chip and the CHRP-Architecture (you can run
  23. macOS; Sun, Windows NT on such a machine)...
