| Subject: | Have I got a PC |
Alab Hwai Klen,
Now you may think that I'm entirly of my truck but, can by any strech of the
imagination can you consider the Amiga to be a PC. The reason I ask is work
related. The company has brought out some new rules in light of a virus by
e-mail scare last week. Needless to say I don't have to mention the name of
the program involved ;-). This memo basiclly says I can't use my Amiga at
home for non-company related word proccessing for fear of infecting the PC's
at work (P.S I should'nt even be typing this E-mail but if you won't tell I
won't). Natually I will be trying to explain to them that there is no chance
off cross infection because of differnces in CPU's, File systems etc.
Basically what I want is pointing at some source of infomation so that I can
back up the argument. I already have one line which I admit is a bit weak in
that just because it's a floppy disk do'nt mean the information is PC
readable, I can back it up as my next door but one neighbour is a
proffessonally plays the Organ. One of his Yamaha's uses Floppies but even
My Amiga can't read them due to the fact the information is stored as an
analoge not digital signal. The reason my argument is weak is that I have no
idea if the PC can read thoose. (Be a first to my knowledge)
Dont miss next weeks exciting e-mail

like an elephant.
