  Well, I have the latest OS that C= had ready when they went belly up,
but remember just because C= is tits up, doesn't mean the Amiga is. Since
Amiga Tech isn't bankrupt......ummm, I wonder who would bail out Apple if
same were to happen to them. Is the MacOS so nice that some company would
put close to 100 million into it.

  Commodore sucked big time..no getting around it! That doesn't take away
from the Amiga. It's gotta kick ass OS that needs some TLC. It will come
out just fine now that someone who cares is running the show.

  Most all the DOS boxes I've upgraded are done to get _Windows_ to run
faster. The applications ran just fine already...just "finer" :-) after we
tossed  faster hardware at it.

  Nothing wrong with Unix or NT at all. It's just more of an OS then I
want to deal with on a *home* computer.:-)
