   GM Ed,   
      
   EV> Amiga users aren't dead yet, they're a Minority in the computer   
   EV> world.   
      
   I know that and the Amiga certainly has earned its popularity among its   
   followers.   
      
   EV> There probably are a few Sinclair ZX-81's that see the light of day   
   EV> once in a while.   
      
   I doubt it but I can imagine myself turning on my CP/M machine again but   
   at the time being it and its accessories are in their delivery cartons.   
      
   EV> I was in a store that sold and repaired Commodore computers when an   
   EV> employee showed me how he could draw a scene by using the Mouse and   
   EV> a Graphics program on a Amiga.   
      
   I recall myself writing a while ago that Commodore computers only worked   
   with Commodore specified hardware.   
      
   Some day later I realized that I had wrongly accused Commodore for that.   
   Instead it was Compaq that was the culprit intended.   
      
   EV> I watched as he made a Lake, and on the Shoreline he drew some   
   EV> Trees, some Clouds in the Sky.   
   EV> Next he highlighted the Trees along the Shoreline and the Sky,   
   EV> and Flipped it and then used that as a "Reflected Image" on the   
   EV> Water of the Lake.   
      
   Yes, as I staed B4, the Amiga was/is a very capable machine.
