Perhaps it gives us time. I doubt that the Draco, running an Alpha cpu
will use Amiga OS unless it allows the Alpha to multitask with the 060.
It does as you say, allow us to use our Amiga S/W and some H/W and best
of all -- intel free, no dos, no windoz. Maybe by the time the Draco is
showing its age, a new Amiga will arise. One that can surpass the pentium
and powerpc. If not, the 060 with emplant will be quite strong and the
Alpha with NT will do quite well. Anyway, I'd pay more to get an Amiga
or semi-Amiga than to get a dos box any day.
