<continuation> heels in love with the Amiga for everything. I'm treasure for a non-profit music magazine. When I do the mail, I have a database, spreadsheet and wordprocessing program up, all at the same time, using a simple two-key combination to switch among them. I have even worked on the mail while WHAP was downloading messages from CIS. I never have to wait for something to print before I go on to the next thing, since the printing is set up to take place in the background. I'm now looking at how I can use AREXX and scripit to fully integrate these three programs, so I only have to fill out one customized command screen for eash letter, and have the computer then enter the appropriate data in the other programs, eliminating double entry of things like names, check amounts and specific merchandise wanted (we sell records) by me. Get Amy for games. She's great at it. But get at least a 2000 for easy expansion. If you are at all into computers, you will quickly find that Amy opens all those new worlds NOW that OS/2 with Presentation Manager and the mythical MAC multitasking OS hope to open for you SOMEDAY. BTW, be prepared for a little bit of confusion when you first start playing around with the Amiga OS. In some ways it's like MSDos, and in some ways it's like the Mac interface, but in a lot of ways, it's its own animal. Once you get comfortable with it, you'll feel like you are wearing lead boots when you use anything else with less power than a VAX or a full Sun workstation. <continued>
