except cyberporn generally requires more computational power than office work, so...

And yes Windows is a good OS, if you cant see that then blinkers much

Windows is a good product.  It's not great, mind you, and it's not without glaring faults, but it's good enough.  The company that produces it, on the other hand, is whole other story..

I don't think I'd even want to play MP3s on an Amiga.  Stick a modern HDD in one and you could have a sizeable collection of uncompressed music that requires very little computational power to play.

Isn't it hypocritical to put a modern huge hard drive in an amiga to allow you store audio in an inefficient format? If using modern hardware in a PC is so bad.

I never said anything about PCs being bad.  Use whatever you want.
As for raw bitstream audio being inefficient, that's just not correct.  It's the most computationally efficient way to do it, not to mention the best quality.
Storage is so cheap now that I can't understand why anyone would bother with compressed music on anything other than portable devices.

oh, I was talking about all the stuff in the research center like 10 minutes from my house.

...where you hang out all the time to tell them what's what and sing the virtues of the PC Engine, amirite?

Modern computers never fail!
