Applications?????
Is there anyone on the net who gives a tinker's damn about applications?
The important thing is to have a 68000 CPU and nifty specs for sound and
graphics. It doesn't matter if you ever *use* that stuff or not.
Besides, hopefully someone will put Unix on an ST or an Amiga. That's
another important thing to have, even though you have no use for it.
