Back in those times, Amigans laughed at you all. DOS was a sick joke, and the
fastest Mac available for years was an Amiga with an Emplant board, at half the
cost of a IIfx!
Of course its all a moot point now. I know this once would have been big time
flame bait but since people were remeniscing about OSes of days gone by, and
their merits, I had to chime in. My wife used to have an LCII, I had an Amiga
3000D. Same CPU, same amount of RAM, similar HD sizes etc. The Amiga could
pretty much humiliate the LCII in every discipline, and even new it was cheaper!
8 Megs RAM, those were the days! But I will say the LCII had one of the nicest
computer manuals I've ever seen.
