I, for one, do not agree.  How is the G3 obsolete?  It might not be enough to run some bloated crap OS, but it will suit OS4 just fine for now.  Sure I will upgrade to G4 or G5 when available.  But if we can emulate an 060 at 300mhz on a G3, it is already several times faster than my 060 at 50 mhz.  Think of the performance increase I will see for software designed for PPC.  Once again a G3 600mhz does not equal a PIII 600, and can not be compared on the basis of their mhz.

I am more than willing to but the AmigaOne at it's current price.  In my opinion I would rather pay more for a quality OS, then pay less and regret it every day.

Lets face it the amiga is a peace of junk. All you little amiga people ever talk about is how the amiga is so much better than pc’s. You people are always saying that windows is a bad os and stuff like that. But the truth is all amiga freaks run windows. I know this because there is no way in hell the amiga computers could ever have enough power to run a web browser. My little calculator can out render an amiga and go on the Internet at the same time. Why is it that when somebody makes fun of the amiga’s crapyness you always replay buy saying you don't understand the architecture. The truth is you people probably don't even know the architecture of your jelly donut.  


I really don't care if you like Amigas or not, but at least realize that if we have both PCs and Amigas and still favor our 10 year old Amigas then they must do something right.  And btw my Amiga surfs the web perfectly on my cable modem and I prefer Voyager 3.3 to IE 6.  My PC @500mhz is slightly faster on bringing up pages than my 50mhz Amiga.  But Voyager crashes a lot less than IE does, and it is far more configurable.  But again you are entitled to your opinion and I to mine.  Why must everyone buy the same computer and OS to be considered intelligent?  I have compared Windows and Amiga.  I'll take the Amiga!
