  13. Having just looked there, I have to say VIScorp seem to be sending out
  14. all the right signals. I'm encouraged. I've long thought the Amiga's
  15. ultimate home should be as an interactive-tv controller.

  17. Has anyone heard anything about whether or not they'll continue to
  18. develop a RISC-based system? Presumably they will, surely they can't
  19. expect to get a decent 'future-proof' set-top box running off a CISC?
