Re: Why do you stick with the Amiga?

I don't care about teaching my old amiga new tricks. It tried to do the PCI/USB/PPC/RTG/AHI thing, but it just isn't my cup of tea.
Sure it worked for a while, but I no longer have the need to compete with silly PC users on what machine is the best.

Besides, it makes me sad that all the new stuff becomes crippled due to the IP troubles and the resulting lack of support.

But instead of letting the amiga lose it's appeal, I reverted to the classic amiga aproach; Simple stable machines that do exactly what it says on the tin! In my case, real-time video control. And for that matter, there's still no substitute for D-paint and a Genlock!

Thank you!

I was already writing a way to elaborate post just to make that point! Luckily I noticed your post before I could finish mine!

Bad analogies really make me cringe these days.
