- Sorry, but if the Amiga is a games machine, then what is the PC? It has
- far more games than any other personal computer.
-
- There are a few very good games for Sun workstations, and they doesn't
- make it a games machine. They only show the computer's POWER to do stuff
- like that. Things that require fast machines, fast image display, and
- of course, good audio quality.
-
- What's the deal with the MSDOS machines? every program that runs on the
- PC can be ported to the amiga, but that's not true the other way.
-
- I am not bashing MSDOS machines, I'm just telling the facts. Please prove
- me wrong.
