If I could get a web browser that was almost as good as opera or firefox i would happily revert to my 060 A4000. ( Sorry the latest Ibrowse doesn't cut it yet) Other than web surfing I can do averything that i wnat on it and it feels snappier than my Athlon X2 3800+ with 2g ram. i really don't know why people use a PC to do things that dedicated appliances do better( but admittedly amiga's don't do well)eg i don't want to watch DVD's on my pc because my $50 dvd player does a better job of it and my 42" plasma display is far better for this than ANY LCD monitor on a PC. If I want to play music my stereo sounds better than any PC sound card, and if I want to listen to an mp3 while mobile my $49 mp3 player with 1G Sd card carries more than enough songs than can be easily managed.

I've moved on - can't see myself switching back to AmigaOS now. Lack of applications and the additionsl expense, not to mention that I would have no interest at all in a custom piece of hardware that would be obsoleted as soon as their manufacturer went out of business. It wouldn't matter if it was a $99 computer - it's too late.
Six years ago it might have been a different story, but even then I wasn't keen on a new hardware platform. It didn't make any sense then and it doesn't now.[/quote]
