[net.micro.cbm] Amiga?

bobh@pedsgd.UUCP (Bob Halloran) (06/12/85)

With the Atari ST starting to ship (at least to Canada), and expected
here in the US within 30 days, I am wondering about the competition,
namely the Amiga.  WHAT IS IT?  WHERE IS IT?

Is part of the delay the litigation between Amiga and Atari over
their previous efforts?  Is Commodore trying to line up lots of software
in advance?  Is there any official word on when the machine will see
the light of day?  I would seriously like to know, since I am starting
to look for a low-cost 68K box for personal use.  The ST has been shown 
around, all we hear about the Amiga is that it's better and will be 
here Real Soon Now.

Please reply by mail.  Thanks.
