        Hi, Nicolai.

n> Amazing, isn't it?  Fact is that Autoconfig existed from start and it

Well I had hard times upgrading both machines.

n> Yeah, so are SGIs.  I bet you also have a cheap all-in-one stereo
n> rack and a Skoda.  Have you ever wondered why everybody isn't driving
n> the same car?  Or why some people pay thousands of dollars for a
n> class A amplifier?  That must be true mysteries to you.

Hold it there, to spend much money in equipment *worth* the money, like
your amplifiers, is different from spending much money on overprizet
things like DEC pcs and Amigas+Equipment to get this thing into
professional Motion.
