Is Amiga NG underpowered?

I'm happily chugging along at 33MHz on my classic system, able to do everything I need it to do including browse the web, play mp3's, gaming, etc.  These kind of questions really drive me nuts; what's underpowered for one person might be fantastic for someone else, ya know?  :griping:

Think how fast my home blender would be if I plugged it into 240V rather than 120V?

I'm standing way far back if you do that!  :roflmao:

[Oldsmobile_Mike]

Yeah Mike, wouldn't you die if you stood back from the Bass-O-Matic?

I had to google that reference.  Obviously didn't watch very much SNL in my youth.  Definitely worth it.  :lol:

Sounds like my old truck. Feel it for 3 blocks.

One of my long string of sh**y old cars when I was younger was a 1968 Dodge Dart, Slant-6, with a glasspack.  The exhaust dumped right after that, right under the body of the car.  You'd start that thing up and it would shake the ground, people be all like "You got a 340 in that thing?!"  Haha, Slant-6 FTW.  :lol:

Pretty sure my only complain being that when Bill McUnEWEN makes public statements with keyword "Amiga" it will be all over the WWW

When has Fleecy McBill crawled out of his cave to say jack squat in the past few years?  Don't think I've seen an  announcement from him since about 2006...  ain't he dead yet?  :lol:

are you serious about using POWER8 processors for a home desktop enduser computer? :confused:

Well, it would solve the "my processor is bigger/faster/better than yours" debate, at least for a hot minute.

i doubt ignore lists have any effect on whomever isnt strong enough to read a post and ignore it out of his own free will.

It doesn't block that they've made a post, just the contents, which is even more useless.  For example I tried to block someone who never contributes to any discussions, just posts "stuff for sale" ads all the time, because I didn't want them clogging up the homepage.  But they were still visible.  Not as useful as the Facebook "block" option.  Although that can be kind of funny, too, when you see someone having a one-sided conversation with someone that you've blocked (or who has blocked you).  

[Oldsmobile_Mike]

Meh.  i don't really care, as danbeaver's posts aren't really worth getting excited about blocked or unblocked.  I simply thought it funny that every time someone calls him on his crap he trots the "ZOMG - you are teh ignoreds! ROFL!", thought I'd try it on, since it seems to get his motor running.

Eh, I'm sure if you ran into a bar you'd have a pint with him.  :pint:   :pint:

People complain all day long on the forums, but really this is still one of the nicer ones I'm on.  Those DD-WRT guys make me want to murder someone!  

[Oldsmobile_Mike]

I'd have to run into it pretty hard :p
Just kidding. I've found that despite their opinions on certain matters most people are good drinking company. That said, any of you see me in Mountain View for Amiga 30, I'll buy you a drink.

Wow, did I totally type that wrong or what?  :lol:

Cheers!  :pint:  :pint:
