The Atari ST. Remember that one. It was on my short list when I was
looking for a personal computer to replace my fried Commodore 64. But I
chose the Amiga instead. All my reading indicated it had more potential
as a personal computer. Too bad Commodore never realized that, and
drove it into the ground.

News to me. But doesn't really matter. I don't have or use any 3-D
apps. The only games I play are chess, poker and Blackjack, and 2-D
works just fine. ;-)
