Christopher: Now that I've got the ATonce up and running, I can see for myself what an antiquated and clunky dos MSDOS is. I'm sure that more advanced machines with their Windows environments and Mega-meg memory banks are a different cup of tea, but look what we can do with the lowest end Amigas. I often wonder what would have happened if the Amiga was developed by IBM way back when. I'll just bet that the Amiga (marketed by IBM and named the same) would have been the power machine and if Commodore had introduced MSDOS machines instead of Amigas, most of us would never have heard of MSDOS. Did you understand that? It all seems to be a matter of marketing and timing. As long as the Amiga platform continues to grow, and software continues to improve, I won't change. My main reason for buying the ATONCE was to learn MSDOS. Unfortunately, it is THE business machine. George – via Whap!
