- I own an A1200 and use PCs (DX2-66s) at University. The Amiga is far better at manipulating graphics files, and does not
- suffer so many crashes. The PC, however is the standard, so when we did a group project, I had to use a PC to put the
- graphics into my part, which was a nightmare. It took >7mins to insert one of the graphs!
-
- I would rather have an Amiga of *equal* power to a PC, but PCs are standard and so much cheaper for the same spec (though
- this _might_ change with PPC Amigas).
