"but to laugh at an ad, that REAL PEOPLE say is very truthful is a bit closed minded isn't it? (That's a real question… if it isn't closed minded please tell me so.)" I didn't say the ad was dishonest. Just that it would cost a lot of bucks – according to the ad – to bring an Amiga/Emplant configuration to the same capabilities you can purchase as a standalone PowerMac for $1,500 or so. Please understand that I think the Emplant is an excellent product and for those who need an 040 accelerator and 24-bit video card for other purposes, a complete Emplant configuration represents excellent value for occasional emulation use. But on a more practical level, buying a standalone Macintosh is a less expensive way to go than the total Emplant solution of Emplant, 040 accelerator and 24-bit card. Jerry
