Having just read the article on LightWave for PC platforms in VTU and having
just read the post about Newtek's new PC product and having followed this thread
for a little while, I MUST ask: Can someone who has dealings with the PC world
give me a quick precis on the differences between WindowsNT and Windows (I'm
assuming that Windows95 is just going to be the latest evolution--if it is
somehow a third option, please inform me of that as well).
This may well be the wrong list for this question, but as of yesterday's post
I'm wondering if it's not time to consider changing platforms. If the
liquidation continues to drag out and the secret Newtek wildcard turns out to be
a viable replacement for Amiga based Toasters & Flyers, the world's greatest
machine may truly be in its final days.
