- I mostly agree (see my previous post, replying to Randell Jesup). The stuff I
- do for the Amiga has been compiler, linker, multi-player games, etc. All stuff
- that requires the full OS, and works on any of the machines (at least as far
- as I know!) I'm just finally coming to see SOME advantage to having systems
- that can run the neat demos and games. (Not that I've seen many, since they
- won't run on this A3000, so I don't bother to try to get any of them.)
