It only took Commodore 5 years to produce a machine with a 640x400 display which didn't cause your eyes to start bleeding after ten minutes. P.P.P.S. Apple doesn't know how to market computers?!? Right... P.P.P.P.S The only "blowing" being done is by IBM, IBM cloners and Apple. Don't criticize the ST while Intel 8088-based DOS computers still roam the planet. Especially considering the fact that, while technically inferior, the MS-DOG machines are the only serious choice for the business market. -- / Craig Pratt / icsu8053@caesar.cs.montana.edu / / Montana State University, Bozeman MT / Craig.Pratt@msu3.oscs.montana.edu / / "I like to consider myself one of the happy generation." / /_______ FBI Agent Rosenfield, _Twin_Peaks_ _______________________________/
