Actually, being honest, no, the A***** S* looks shit compared to the Amiga 500/600/1200.

Can't say I think of anything man made as beautiful.
I suppose the word I'd use to describe the CD32 is "hilarious". I think it's made out of Tic Tac boxes. |

In order of preference;
1000 3000 500 CDTV The CD32 is too cheap looking, 1200 is too compact for my liking and the angled DD is ghey, should've kept the the 500 casing style. |

A bit of googling for George Robbins* and Atari ST on google groups might throw up something interesting too. *Rest his soul. He'll be missed |

I owned an amiga for 5 years 1988-1993 and it never broke down once not even a slight fault no other computer in existance has been more reliable than the amiga.
On the other hand the atari st i owned broke down 6 times in 6 months due to the fact they put the power supply inside the computer how mad is that also they put a spectrum 128k sound chip in oh and it could not handle smooth scrolling wizball being a prime example. The only good thing aout the atari was tnt & oids game. |

Have a look at http://moobunny.dreamhosters.com/cgi...rist/124.shtml The STE and Falcon have hardware scrolling which was a major flaw in the ST. Well I say major flaw but the standard machine is capable of sync scrolling. Have a look at Enchanted lands. It's a nice trick. The ST doesn't deserve the abuse it gets from Amiga owners. If Jay Miner thought it was a neat computer and George Robbins owned one they couldn't be that bad Frank |
