I know what you mean.. the only hope for the Amiga is probably in
the wrong hands.... I hope I'm wrong on that though... I hope ESCOM
continues the amiga line, with new products... But since they are a big
PC business, they might be do what happened to IBM.... Start other
companies making clones... That would be great I think, since prices
would drop considerably...and best of all the Amiga will survive...
But hey I could just be dreaming, in which case, don't anybody pinch me!!
