Everyone has their own opinion of what they would wish for, what they must have and what they consider to be the absolute minimum rock bottom features they need.
At home here, we have three pc's running WindowsXP, my MicroA1 running AOS4 and a semi-retired A2000HD running AmigaOS 3.1. I personally use my MicroA1 more often than the pc's. The other family members use the pc's, but have no interest in Amiga stuff.
Recently, my hard drive croaked, so I am running a basic installation of the most recent public AmigaOne version of AOS4 on a new hard drive. I'm posting this post using IBrowse 2.4 for AmigaOS 4.0. It works fine on most web sites that I would normally visit.
Right now I am running what I would consider to be rock bottom. It is very stable and I can still surf the net to my content. :-D
Before my hard drive croaked, my system had several PPC programs, several 68K programs, and E-UAE for old stuff that didn't like OS4. I had Final Writer 97, AWebPPC, IBrowse, OWB (a web browser in development), Personal Paint, TVPaint, Real3D, AmigaAMP, TuneNet (an MP3 player and internet radio player), DvPlayer, AmiDVD (a CD writer program), MakeCD (an older CD writer program), AmiPDF, WarpView (a picture viewer), YAM, SimpleMail, WookieChat, and many others.
What I lacked was a printer driver for my particular brand of printer and some more sophisticated office type applications.
These kinds of programs come to a stable market where there is hardware available and developers can make some money selling their product.
