This posting went over the net 1-28-95 or shortly after ------------------------------------------------------- For the Amiga Technology to survive, regain some of the ground it has lost and even obtain the foothold in industries which it has missed (due Commodores errors), it becomes important to extend the Amiga product line to include a card/expansion box for Mac and IBM. To allow the existing Mac and IBM systems to access the Amiga technology both Hardware and software (OS). This message will not be responded to simply because the above is a statement of fact and has not room for debate. The intent of the massage is simply to present Amiga fans with this reality so they may get use to the idea before it happens. The Amiga technology does not need any more friction in its promotion. It needs team work. And this team work means including Mac and IBM users in this team. It takes money to develop and continue to develop a technology. With the Amiga technology this means sales. By including the Mac and IBM user bases the potential sales base increases a great deal beyond what it is currently and shrinking (due to delays to determine ownership of the technology). Overall this evolution should not be a problem considering the current emulations of Mac and IBM on the Amiga. The bridge is already well under way.
