Re: "... I want a fast machine with superior sound and graphics. ...."


Same here!  The question is what is the required resolution.  The Xerox
workstations has superior (black and white) graphics at about 80
dots/in.  The Apple Macintosh also displays near that resolution.
Therefore 640x400 on a 8"x5" (about 10" diagonal) monitor would look
nice if it's non-interlaced.  I am disappointed that Amiga comes so
close yet still misses the mark.
