Hi Again, I was recently handed a copy of an article in the March '89 issue of AV Video magizine comparing the Amiga 2000 to a MacII. The first thing I noted was the editors comment at the start of the article quuoted without permission as follows: "In April 1988 AVV asked its readership to indicate their interest in future articles on the Amiga computer and peripheral products. The response was strong, and AVV will begin publishing a regular column on Amiga in April, written by Mike Wells. If you have expertise in this field and want to contribute an article, please write to: Sam Stalos, Editor, AV Video, 11034 Dennis Road, Dallas, TX 75229..." Here is another chance for us users to push/enhance our favorite computers fame and glory. How about it you experts, show Sam what you can do! Other interesting quotes (taken out of context ala B*TE) : "The Amiga....,is still the only computer capable of true mulltitasking..." "Magni ...genlock...Sales to professionals has been brisk..." "Tha Amiga sounds like a great computer, and it is." on comparing Amiga and macII: "For picture quallity the Mac II is clearly superior...." Boo!!!! " On a speed basis, The Amiga wins out(if configured with Ronin's 68020/68881 card)." "For price comparison,...In all, a fully equipped Mac II will set you back about $11,500, while a comparably equiped Amiga will cost you approximately $7,900." Well thats all for now.
