The Mindset computer has been mentioned a few times in this group.
For those of you who don't know about it, it was an early x86 box
that wasn't compatible with MS-DOS.  It was fantastic, especially for
its day.  Anyone I've ever seen talk or write about it has nothing
but the highest praise for it, but admits the MS-DOS incompatibility
killed it.

You are talking about the beginning of a new age of MindSet computers,
except they will have MS-DOS compatibility.  And given time, the new
technologies (CD-ROM, 486 machines) will be ridiculously cheap.  But
Tandy wants to beat this $2K price barrier, you know.

In the includes for Kick 3.0 (beta 4) there is definitions from which you

	How stiupid can you be man. Any magazine can make that distinction.
When Links was reviewed LINKS PRO probably was not even available. Have
you seen Links for the Amiga and for the VGA. You are just trying to cover your ass. You are simply an idiot. Just stop bulshitting. One question I have is why are you allways trynig to make those stupid points. It's like a pshycological

Yeah, I had "inside information" from a dealer that they (a conglameration)
of current Atari dealers were going to attack Atari at a special dealers
meeting on August 15th - apparently, they aren't happy, and they did just
that.  I don't think losing the current US dealers would hurt that bad if
Atari can get the Falcon in the states -SOON - they would vbe able to
easily "dupe" more dealers, and maybe even a nationwide chain - into

Well, the advantage is not just the number of registers, but also
their fact that half of them are general purpouse address registers
and the others are general purpouse data registers. The other main
advantage is the fact that there are two caches and MMUs operating
concurrently as well as copyback mode.

Is this the sort of thing commonly found for Amigas?

    Right. MicroEMACS looks SOOOO slick in 24-bit color.

    This attitude is LAME. The hardware exists to do the things you
    need the colors for. Anything else - who really cares? It's like
    hassling a Mac's DTP because the Mac is mono - STUPID.

    What makes it even lamer on the Amiga is that the system has, from
    the A1000 on, been built around a screen system where apps are
    SUPPOSED to use the kind of screen they need. So CEDPro runs on a
    4-color HIRES screen while VLT runs on an 8-color HIRES screen and
    Mostra displays HAM pictures while DPaint edits LORES brushes.

    Perhaps I can clarify what I said by repeating it...

    MODs, the HIGHEST FORM of MICRO MUSIC I've EVER come across, play
    perfectly well on the Amiga with MINIMAL SYSTEM IMPACT while
    playing.

    That you think it's "cheesy Euro-Synth" means you are tasteless,

Huh? I think there was virtual memory long before the 640K limit on MS-DOS.
On a multi-user system, VM helps system throughput. I leave it as an exercise

C'mon. Even Windows gets around the problem to a great extent. This is
mostly an MS-DOS limitation, only a small Windows limitation, and certainly
not an OS/2, Xenix, or other "real" OS limitation.
