With the amiga's and mac's and whateverelse is out there I think we
are stuck with the ibm.pc. I just don't think that "compatibles" would
fit. At least until all the die hard crazies, wake up and smell the
architecture. (no flames from the atari people please)

By the Way, Tom, When's AMD coming out with their 486dx/50 chip, I'd
like to see the competition force the price down so I can buy one (maybe
even two, ha). I have an AMD 386dx/40, barely a year old. Ya think I
could trade it up to the New AMD 50????

later
Bill
