[What's this line-eater thingy?] Hello, all. Could somebody give a brief run-down on the features and relative merits of the Amiga line of computers? What proprietary chips are in the Amiga and what do they do--Paula, (Fat/Fatter?) Agnus, Copper, etc.? What are the primary differences between (and prices of) the 500, 2000, and 2500? I thought the 500 had 512K of memory. Has this changed? How much memory does each come with? I know that AmigaDOS is loaded up on bootup. How much memory does it take up? What are the features of AmigaDOS 1.3 and the upcoming (?) 1.4? As you can guess, I new to comp.sys.amiga. (I also DON'T own an Amiga.) I've got a LOT more questions, but I'll hold off for now . . . 8) I have to say that I'm impressed by the amount of activity of the Amiga newsgroups. Please reply by mail as a reply might get lost in all the new postings. (Who wants to go through 200+ new postings to find a reply?) Thanks.
