Are you running 1.3?  I'm using a 696x480 8 color Workbench on an A3000
and have never run out of Chip RAM except for the time that I tried to
by running multiple copies of DPaint.  An 800x600 256 color screen would
use 480000 bytes, two would use 960000 bytes.  More than a megabyte of
Chip RAM remains free for other uses.  And so what if the free memory
is low, why have it if you are not going to use it?

I'd like to know why 2M is considered to be deficient on the A4000, yet
the Mac Quadras only offer 2M VRAM and most SVGA boards for the PC do
not have more than 1M VRAM.  How in the world do the users of those
machines manage on such a paltry amount of memory for the display?

I didn't consider that.  The speech recognition technology looks like it

much in the near future.  I speak with a Southern Drawl and it will take
some sophisticated software to understand the extra syllables that most

Yes.  The 040 tower is US$6000, not the 030 tower, which is less than I got

    Are you being sarcastic here, or do you really believe this? The
    position of the world today is due largely to the existence of the
    British Empire (now gone, but the most significant force in
    exploring the world - hell, America owes its existence to the
    Empire), and the technology coming (mostly) out of Europe and

   It's not the square pixels; it's just an effect of the higher-quality
display.  Amiga pictures all look just as blocky on an A3000 with a 
multisync monitor.  Amiga pictures may look less blocky on an Amiga with
a lesser quality display (such as a 1084S monitor) because the colors

Didn't you say you had a ET4000 in your work computer Skip?  As far as I
know, mostly all ET4000 cards support non-interlaced displays, IF your
monitor can handle it.  A few ET4000s can do 1280x1024, which is probably
interlaced, if that's what you're using, well you can always drop down to
1024x768.  ;-)

Well I'm not saying there're scientific studies that suggest interlacing is

flickering interlaced display, my eyes get tired quickly, then for me there
is a problem.

Exactly my point, interlacing may be necessary for certain situations, but

Now the only fear I have in 'powering up' to the A4000 is that in
another 2 or so years my $3500 machine is going to become orphaned,
just like the A3000.  I believe everything is surface mounted on the
A4000.  Kinda hard to upgrade should they decide to totally redesign

Yes.

And if you accept interlace, you can get the even higher resolutions like
1280x512 in 8 bitplanes (256 colors or HAM8).

Oh, cut the guy a break...

There are some dozens of people working full time at Commodore to
make a positive contribution to what the Amiga is.

There are some hundreds of people working more or less full time
as developers to make a positive contribution.

There are probably some thousands of people hacking Amiga software
and hardware for anything from fun to "we could be rich and famous".

There are several *millions* of people who have bought Amigas to
have a computer, play games or whatever personal ends.

There is only one Marc Barrett.

It would probably be uncouth to suggest that it's a shame that he
can be heard by such a large audience.

On the other hand, one can cherish the notion that there are really
so few credulous Marc wanna-be's and syncophants in that audience.

Constructive criticism is so difficult.  It requires not only being
well informed on the subject matter and being able to discuss it
in reasoned terms, but also being able to understand the conditions
and options of the recipient and being able gracefully admit error.

Someday Marc may acquire these skills, till then...

I'm assuming the README file will stay on the product disk. Why waste HD
space by copying it over? The relative path references ":../." are ideal
because they don't require assigns (which the vast majority of users
will never use or understand), and it will work even if the disk is
renamed. Well-written apps also search ":devs" and ":libs" before
"libs:" and "devs:" for similar reasons.

Despite what I wrote above, Peter has a good point.  If you want a cheap,
usable computer, you can't go past an A500 (the A600HD is even better value).
What would you do with a 386 box with no HD or monitor?  Plug it into a TV?
How?  You have to spend more money.  Actually, I wouldn't use any Amiga with
a TV, so that's hardly important, although I guess it is to some people who are
really strapped for cash.

More importantly, what OS are you going to run on a 386 with no hard drive?
Windows?  OS/2?  No, all you can do is DOS, and a PC running DOS is hardly in
the same class as even a floppy-only Amiga running AmigaOS.

	Considering Marc's response, when informed he was right, is it now
safe to assume that even HE realizes how seldom he is right?
