- Bleh. I have had an amiga back when Mac's were little grey boxes and
- the IBM AT was the best they had to offer. This was amigas chance to rule
- but lets face it, the amiga is in a tail spin. Sure they are big in europe,
- but so is socialism :-) and I sure as hell am not going to want to mail order
- my computer software from overseas. I have played wing commander on a 486
- and I have to laugh at the amiga version. Amiga has lost what made it a great
- game machine, it ran where others crawled. Now amiga is still running while
- the others have learned to fly. I'm going to miss my amiga, but when I can
- get a full 386 SYSTEM for $1000, and a 486 for $2000 (note that monitor mem
- HD etc) I am going to have to go shopping at electech rather then take a long
- trip to the only amiga dealer of merit in my area.
