Subject: Re: SuperMicro - Dimension 68000

       For those of you who don't know, there is an article about this
       marvellous machine in the August (I think) issue of Computing Now!.

       What they describe is truely a great machine.  It can be just about
       whatever you want it to be.  Plug in a 6502 board and it is an
       Apple, moreso than a lot of the lookalikes/workalikes/clones etc.
       It supports all of the Apple calls to monitor routines (Also runs
       Zaxon which apparently the clones don't do so well).  Plug in an
       8088 and you have an IBM PC that runs like an IBM.  Or run the
       software that has been designed for it.  

       Obviously, you pay the price for this technology, you could buy an
       actuall Apple or IBM PC for less than the Dimension but of course
       then you wouldn't have the versatility.
