"true amigans"


A thought on that. You know Japanese animation, anime? Well, any cartoon made in Japan is anime. If Americans want to make anime, they have to stick to a certain style or else it won't be considered "anime", but a Japanese person can do whatever style he wants and it will be called anime. The whole point is that if Commodore was still around making Amiga's, they would be much different today than 12 years ago when Commodore folded. What then would the "true amigans" have to say? Nothing. Haynie's "crazy" ideas would be fanifest in the latest Amiga.

I think Haynie has a point about "cutting edge" being Amiga rather than Amiga just being backwards compatible with old hardware. Anything any non-Commodore entity today makes must be compatible with the old Amiga to even be considered as Amiga, not just some new piece of hardware that has an Amiga sticker. Maybe there's something to this whole moving forward thing.
