look at Amiga.org, doesn't it seem to be getting smaller, I mean less people, more people are giving up and going away.


I'm sure each person has their own reasons.  Personally I have no intention of leaving amiga.org, but I do get a little frustrated when every day the front page is dominated by "us vs. them" "red vs. blue" "OS4 or whoever sucks" "wish we had an FPGA such-and-such" "these prices are terrible" threads all day long.  For me, personally, I like working on the old hardware.  I couldn't care less about any of the bickering or daydreaming, and I understand that low volume = high cost.  I just wish there were more threads here where people could share ideas how to repair old hardware and keep it running well.  But I'm never going to leave my old hobby computer, haha!  :D
