Yeah I know, your average Amiga (even the powerful A2000 professional!) can't do a lot of the things that a PC or Mac can in relation to educational stuff.
But when I was a kid and first got my shiny new A500, one of things I delved into with great enthusiasm was programming.
Sure I started off with the awful Amiga Basic, but then I discovered the light: AMOS and Blitz Basic.
Kids these days can navigate the internet, publish documents, and create multimedia extravaganza's but I've yet to meet a 12 year old who could program even remotely as good as I could when I was that age. Not that I was brilliant or anything.
I doubt there are any PC/Mac setups that you could program as easily, or with such powerful results, as a good old A2000 running AMOS.
Certainly a damn sight cheaper.
The next generation are becoming excellent computer users, but very few know anything about the 'guts' of computing so to speak.
I'm a teacher myself; I think what Doomy's trying to do could be really valuable.

Sorry, I don't have any spare parts.
