Well, it could also be Cecilia or that woman Amiga artist from Italy (both are quite talented).  I don't think Cammy ever described herself as an visual artist.

I really don't care who it is.

I like the fact that CUSA has pulled the Commodore and Amiga brands under the same roof again, and that they have made some very nice custom cases (C64X).  I do agree, though, that they should try to make the system a little more like a real Amiga (i.e. AROS).

Here are 2 simple rules....

1. If it has no Paula chip it is no Amiga.
2. If it can't execute Defender of the Crown natively without any emulator it is not an Amiga system/Amiga OS.


While I love classic Amigas, I don't agree with this definition.  I think that even if Commodore had not died, and had instead continued to develop the Amiga line until this day, whatever modern Amiga that would have developed would have required an emulator to run the classic era stuff (like the Macs did when they switched from 68K to PPC).

It's a toss up between Asha Develder and Kiki Stockhammer.


But how could it be Asha Develder?
