Wolfenstein 3D caught my attention, Doom and Strike Commander sealed Amiga's fate for me.

an Amiga 2000 will consume far more power than you everyday quadcore intel machine.

What world are you living in? High end CPUs like Core 2 quad will eat over 100W just for the CPU! Likewise for video cards. An A2000 PSU's output would only be considered reasonable for low-end or small-footprint PCs today.


Actually, my Q6600 based server that's running at 100% 24/7 consumes around 90W.
