Try to investigate the market before using global modifiers.  FrameMaker
has been around for quite some time, and I've been using equations in it
for quite some time.  It is hands-down the best word-processor I've used,
and I used Microsoft Word/Mac for several years.

Mod files were designed for a different architecture.  Try getting your GS
to do graphic equalization of an incoming stereo signal, and it will die.

The problem with NeXT is that they plug the DSP for realtime music playing
purposes, when that is not what it's cut out to do.  The DSP is what it
says it is--a digital signal processor.


If you want a UNIX workstation, buy a UNIX workstation.  If you want
Mario Brothers, by a Super Nintendo.
