Hi Graham,
As for what is going on in the Amiga scene nowadays: well, ehm, for one thing we've split up in several subscenes: (not in any particular order, mind) there is AROS, there is MorphOS on the Pegasos by Genisi, there nearly is Amiga OS4.0 on an Amigaish board, there is emulation going on.
You'll find out the details about every subscene when frequenting this site. It's great joy! We throw mud at each other, calling each other names, just for giving the the casual visitor the idea of a lively and thriving community with lotst of jest at each other. This way we hope that that casual visitor gets excited by the sheer ringing NAME the Amiga still has.
Enjoy yourselves after this short introduction. When actively participating, obey a few rules:
a) think of all the Amiga's, be they genuine or les genuine, emulated or pure, as something years ahead of its time
b) patience is a virtue highly underestimated: good things take long to materialize
c) throwing mud is only allowed after labeling each lump as "pure and clean cottonwool"
Now have fun,
regards,
Tjitte
