Betty, Things are going well. Knock on wood 8). We have become the largest commercial printer on Maui. I'm about to buy a new 2-color press. We are a full service bureau with two imagesetters, an Iris color proofing device, lots of Macs, PCs and our sad little network of Amigas. Funny thing, the Amiga has such a bad reputation in the Graphic Arts world that the mere presence of the machines resulted in loss of some business when we first got started. That's all history now. Despite the unpleasant news in the Amiga community, there are really exciting things happening in computers again. I encourage everyone to get a demo of IBM's OS/2 running on a fast 486 or Pentium machine. Better yet, a Power PC (I hope the Power PC beats the brains out of the Pentium). Try OS/2 for a while – you wont miss AmigaDos any more! And there is _real_ potential (read, software support) for this multitasking powerhouse! Of course it needs more hard disk real estate than the size of the entire hard drive that just failed in my A2000, and its memory requirements are substantial, but what the heck, a full-blown Pentium system costs less than my hard-drive equipped A2000 when I first got it.
