I am attempting to convince a relation to purchase an Amiga. He works for a reasonably well known hard disk manufacturer. His company gets a discount on M*c products, so the M*cIIcx is about the same price as the Amiga 2500. I, of course, tell him not to be silly, and to go buy an Amiga, since I have tons of excellent PD software, the hardware is better, it multitasks, etc, et al... I am beginning to convince him. Trouble is, he is a serious hardware designer. One of his *needs* is a good version of Spice. I grabbed ASpice awhile back, but it is not Amigatized, it doesn't do graphics, and it doesn't make use of the 68020 or 68881. He needs complex input waveforms, graphics, 50-100 nodes, and an Arexx port would be nice (he doesn't know about that yet. But I know he could use it). So, folks, any ideas? Like, the future of his purchase hangs on this! (of course, I told him about the '286 card, and I*M compatibility. that is a possibility. But, like, *yuck*!!)

<ahem> my last message was too wordy, so I'll rephrase it. Sorry. I desperately need a good version of Spice to run on an Amiga (this may mean the difference between purchasing a 2500 or not). It must support: -complex driving waveforms -50 nodes -graphics -68020 + 68881 'twould be nice to have: -amigatized menus -ARexx -cost under $500 email response is fine. Thanks! -Todd C.
