What spirit!
« on: March 14, 2005, 05:16:22 AM »
After the Commodore bankruptcy, I threw my hands up and bought a Macintosh.  But I've always kept an interest in the Amiga scene, peeking in on websites and forums once in a while, curious about her fate.

Today:

- I see the fortitude with which the remaining commmunity holds on.

- I see an inventive effort by individuals to keep 3rd party hardware development alive.

- I see the beautiful OS4, rewritten, incorporating standards like OpenGL and AHA.

- I see some bickering and infighting, but creation is messy.

I think you should all take a step back from your 1084s (or whatever monitor is The One these days) and be proud of yourselves.  The spirit lives on, due to the community, and no one else.

I envy you all.  Keep it alive!
