I was thinking about this a couple of days ago... a bit off-topic maybe?
I was talking to a friend of mine about the Amiga and was trying to define what was made the Amiga the Amiga.
There has been numerous discussions about this.. whether it's the os or the hardware or the combination...
I don't have an A-one or a Pegasos, so maybe that's why.. but i can't get the same feeling of Amiga anymore?
So i startet thinking about what med up the Amiga-feeling.
for me i think it's this:
1: The company, even though C= made some mstakes, it _sounds_ good "Commodore Amiga".
2: The time... i was young... from i was 13 to 17 i was gazing at them in the shops...
3: A lot of my friends had one, it made up a community...
4: You never forget your first love... And i an serious about this (not literally though). Just like you never forget your old Lego, or your first Transformer toy...
5: It's story... it's easy to empathize(?) or sympathize with the small, poor, defenseless one... and to cry when it's defenselessly crushed in the battle of the giants..
(Dramatic yea?) :-)
I wish that OS4 will bring back the Amiga-feeling, but right now i feel that it won't.
Just my thoughts... And maybe not THAT off-topic... It depends on what you mean with "live again"
