Since the number of Amigas sold is rapidly approaching (or may have even
exceeded) the one million mark, it can hardly be called a commercial
failure.  It hasn't taken over the PC world, to be sure, and probably
never will, but it hasn't failed, either.

I stopped reading BYTE about four years ago, when the amount of general
noise (not just IBM PC stuff) began to greatly exceed the amount of
useful information.  It used to be that going through a copy of BYTE
would take a day or two; when I discovered that I was typically able to
read all of the stuff in BYTE that I wanted to in less than an hour,
I just quit - the time/money equation didn't balance any more.
