[leirbag28]

Hahaha, boy for once......an intelligent company that makes the right choice and doesnt sell there soul for money!  I applaud you NINTENDO!
Microsoft is Like the BORG.they want to assimilate everyone.............if any comapany gives in, they are sure to Lose their Identity. Nintendo will no longer be Nintendo, but Microsoftees!.

Here is the story!:

 I have no idea.........where else can I put it?

Ive been here in Amiga.org for a long time and still havent figured out everything. Like what the heck happened to the Advert section where people sell their items and post them up here?

 Maybe I chose the wrong words by saying Sold their soul. I really don't think Nintendo are the Bad Guys or were. It is indeed ok to chrge software companies for making games on the NES or SNES..........I think it assures quality games...which Nintendo had the best of.

 As Far as Microsoft...I am 100% against them and as far as it depends on me, I will never purchase anything from them not even if they released an X-BOX that can Time Travel.

@ent0mbed

 I think you should wait for the PS3 then, It will be bacckwards compatible with PSOne and PS2......Wow!  X-Box 2 will not be backwards compatible.

Do not give your money to Microsoft, as they will take out anyone in their way...including Amiga, like they did with Corel and Blue Ribbon software.

@FastRobPlus

 Blue Ribbon was not in Microsofts way...I didn't say that. But suspiciously IIRC, COREL was about to have some deal made with Amiga inc. Mysteriously, Microsoft made an offer COREL couldn't refuse.......they could have said NO! like NINTENDO.
 I do not think Bill Gates is the Devil, but I do not like Microsoft's practices and nor do I like the people who easily bow down to them when it comes to a matter of money if Microsofts intention is to wipe out competition as I believe is what they secretly or openly are trying to do with NINTENDO.

And I don't hate Nintendo. Now as far as you thinking that this discussion is for another area of this site............would you care to move it for me?  as I have no idea how to do that. The discussion is already here. Maybe the Moderators can move it .........I don't know.

@elendil

 I agree with you.


@adolescent
Yes I do have Micosft Windows XP, but I did not pay for this...............believe it or not I found this Pentium 4 in the trash. I make every effort time permitting to use Mozilla, instead of Explorer........and working on getting Linux on this..............also I use it as a backup for my Amiga, since I have a complete copy of My Amiga HD in this PC using WinUAE.

 You cant criticise an OS you know nothing about right?  I use it and know it's flaws, and still believe even Workbench 3.1 is better than Windows XP anyday. Minus the eye candy and upgrades, WB 3.1 is just simply better running on an Amiga.  I have 3 Amiga on my desk and one PC..........running WinUAE. Every PC I have ever owned I found in the Garbage and picked it up.............I don't pay Microsoftees my money if at all possible. I plan to buy a laptop one day..don't know what i'll do then, but hopefully it will come with Linux
