If I could edit video as powerfully and quickly as I can on my iMac, and do the type of multitrack simultaneous audio editing as powerfully and quickly as I do on my iMac, also if I could Skype call and listen to spotify music and so many other things I take for granted on my iMac, and do them all without compromise on AmigaOS4.1 or MorphOS machine, then I would make that my daily use machine and not my iMac, but sadly this is not the case.

I use my Amiga for the retro feeling! Like some people use their 50-60th old chevy instead of brand new BMW´s.

Also the App store Apple created has inspired a whole generation of programmers.


I'm not sure it has inspired them to do anything good.
The app store is full of 'me too' crap and monetizing schemes.

There's a whole series of computing devices - Mobile Phone, Tablet, Laptop Desktop, that consumers can choose from.  I have all four but for many one or two will do....

It's all a matter of having the right bathroom furniture.

Also, remind me never to touch your mobile devices.

Thorham, I can build you this, so you can use your desktop on the go!
If you buy now it cost you only 999.99$! If you call now I also give you a free color radio! ;)
(PS: Battery not included)
