   Hello Dave,   
      
      DD> So you now have a 1040 - right?   
      
   Essentially it became a 1040 STFM, yes.   
      
      DD> ...the Amiga (a *much* better computer IMO)...   
      
       They were different machines and I liked them both in   
   different ways. The Amiga's custom chipset, bus architecture and multitasking   
   operating system were impressive but that also made it more complicated and   
   more expensive.  I really liked the simplicity of the ST and I liked that the   
   operating system was in ROM and I was comfortable with GEM because I'd used it   
   on a couple of other computers.
