What benefits will i gain by using the Amiga instead of a Z-248(IBM) or along with a Z-248 and a 3b2 unix system. We use the Z-248 for office automation and reports. The reports contain charts and graphs. If i can all ready do this with the Z-248 and Unix how will the Amiga help or do better(i don't mean using the bridge card. Just the Amiga side). example: 1. Are the graphs better(screen output). 2. If i create an animation how much more equiptment and software will it cost me. 3. How can the Amiga Help in the Goverment compared to what we have. a. Unix(3b2, Gould,386) IBM mainframe all on a LAN. If you were to try to sell an Amiga to me what would you say to the above ? Thank you Jared A McNeal If you were to try to sell an Amiga to me what would you say to the above ?
