Lots of us have moved on. Many of us use Windows, Linux, and Mac OS machines in addition to our old Amigas. All of the classic Amiga's in my collection are still used occasionally and they are still more fun for me to use than the old XT or 286 I had at the time I bought my first Amiga. It instantly takes me back 10 or 20 years every time I boot one of them up. That's one of the reasons I keep them all. They are still incredible machines, just not compared to todays multiple gigahertz quad core computers.
The platform is in our hands now. It's old, obsolete, outdated, and still very much fun to use. We don't need the parent companies support anymore. We have been doing without them since 1994 or before. New projects like the Mini-Mig will continue to develop as long as we have interest. Projects like AROS and WinUAE will make sure we can run the classic OS long after the last of our old hardware finally dies if we still want to.
It is sad that most of us can't use OS4 and probably won't ever see it run on our own machines. I was really looking forward to buying it. Perhaps someday when it is so old that no one cares anymore we will finally be able to try it out:-)
