It is a matter of what you are used to I guess. I work with WindowsXP so much that I no longer see any drawbacks interface wise. What I like about AmigaOS is that it is lean. Now that is ofcouse also because it hasn't developed for some time. Windows COM components drive me sick. If you install loads of them you are in for some swappin. Thank god .net is making them obsolete. Anyway AmigaOS doen't have something like that. So for me it is pure nostalgia that gives it the edge. It doesn't even use virtual memory (swap file). Then again it leaks memory like crazy (at least my setup does).
