BingoBoingo has never found a working Apple IIGS at an acceptable price. Played with one for a bit Phree
then...
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i dunno how documented it was, not caring for such

than apple ii as i recall << c64 was easily cheaply stamped product, Amiga was not
decimation: asciilifeform: c64 was cheaper
than apple ii as i recall

THE SAME assholes in spite of changing everything around jobs

the IIGS was a great machine
mircea_popescu: and while i agree with you re
the distinction, i believe it's without a difference.
mircea_popescu: no, im comparing
the amiga i knew (early 90s)
to
the apple i saw (late 90s onwards)
mircea_popescu: they stand in my mind because when i first heard of apple i
thought "hey...
this is like... amiga ?"
decimation: note
that 'next' is basically modern osx
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> cbm shipped ~schematics~ with machines. apple sold... yes, a key, with which

target for
the drill

trailer
trash.
decimation: having a large block of voting catholic irish - had
to be crushed
decimation: and
those poor whites were largely
the
targets of black immigration
to cities
BingoBoingo: decimation: Only when sane pale folk say whitey. When SJW's and
the lower class blacks say whitey
they mean poor whites.

this case are old-fashioned anglican wasps

things suspicious : romania, paywalls, and bitcoin.

the african american
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu>
the difference is minute. amiga, just as bad assholes. << Sure.
The biggest difference was Amiga paid more for parts on each box so

the assholes, reamed on
their chosen niches

that never made it, which nobody seemsd
