- Well, I can't wait either...I'm losing business as a result of having to
- wait. Then for what? To get an NTSC A1200 for more than it would cost
- to:
-
- * Add 8Mb RAM to my '386 Bridgeboard, install Windoze, etc.;
-
- * Purchase an Emplant for the one open slot in 3 networked Amigas;
-
- * Replace my C=UNIX with NetBSD (sounding like the best choice so far);
-
- * Wait for AWeb (I already offered to _BUY_ a copy...WTFE); or,
-
- * Hitch-hike on the "information superhighway" with Lynx on a Netcom shell?
-
- Believe it or not, installing NetBSD on an A3000 sounds like my best
- choice with the Bridgeboard option being my second choice. The problem
- with the BB option is that I'd probably need a SVGA/VGA card, extra free
- space on my 125Mb IDE, etc. It would be nice to have one of those
- Multi-I/O cards that Vortex was selling!!!
