The Amiga soes have better sound and more colors than the ST, the only thing we
have found disturbing is the slow disk access speed (Operating System) and the
poor text quality. Also the multi-tasking operating system tends to crash if
one of the current jobs made a wrong call or called for too much memory. Most
of the more stable programs turn the Multi-tasking off. Also you will find that
the people writing programs for it generally writ on an IBM AT and cross
assemble. Seems it isn't productive to write on the Amiga….enough said, the
Amiga Hardware is very good the operating system still isn't finished…thats
my thought on the subject.
