Here's a interesting little tidbit I found in PC Week Sept 12, pg 44:
------------------------------------------------
Another Hombre has a somewhat slanted list of things to do while waiting
for Presentation Manger applications:
1. Buy an Amiga. Every significant new feature in OS/2 was done first
on the Amiga: multitasking, interprocess communications, color graphics
interface as well as large amounts of directly addressable memory.
2. Buy an Amiga. When IBM first released the PS/2 machines, it copied
several features from Commodore's Amiga: analog RGB video, a bus that
supports multiprocessing, a built-in color display adapter, built-in
serial, parallel and mouse ports, 3-1/2 inch floppy disks and high-
resolution color graphics.
3. Buy an Amiga. It's more IBM-compatible (using a Bridge Board) with the
classic PC, XT and AT machines than the PS/2.
4. Buy an Amiga. Its slick graphics and easy-to-use operating system are
tight and solid, unlike OS/2, which requires as much as 4M bytes just
to run.
5. Buy and Amiga. The best-ever microcomputer implementation of Unix is
coming for the Amiga this fall.
All that's just the half of it, amigos, he says.

I was SURE that I had the scoop, because no self-respecting Amiga owner would read Pee Sea Leak. :-) Lest you think that I have no self respect, it was my devoted wife who pointed out this item to me. Now what I want to know is, which one of you wrote this? Come on, fess up. ______________________________________________________________________________ /_____/_____/_____/_____/_____/_____/_____/_____/_____/_____/_____/_____/_____/ |_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____| _No dark sarcasm in the classroom|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|___ |____Teachers leave the kids alone__|_____|_____|_____|_bryan@cs.utexas.edu___| ___|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|{ihnp4,seismo,...}!cs.utexas.edu!bryan_ |_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|_____|
