  Sort of "feels" like an Amiga... All I've got at the moment is
TOS/GEM, so I don't have much of an opinion. The condition of the
monitor was a nice surprise, though. Nice, crisp pic, and I'm not
having to max the controls to get it.
  As soon as I figure out how to generate software disks from Linux it
should be fun. First guess is that I'll be setting up a SLIP connection
and trying the NFS client....

  Are the DMA-SCSI adapters unobtainium? Sounds useful.
