I agree with Wayne that the amiga will never "take over the world" - or whatever notion the kids (on AW) have on this issue. I don't think I EVER believed that.
I had hoped that a competant person or persons would at least run a company with some dignity and respect.
it was not to be.
I will tell you why I'm still involved: Last saturday a bunch of us got together for the monthy QUAG meeting over at Lou's. We saw a Peg running 1.5 (VERY impressive!), we play with AmigaOne's and any new updates that happen to roll in. we play with amiga forever, i brought in my AROS CD but the pc there didn't boot from it. etc., etc.
I have been working on redoing my web site for purchase on a CD and having included quicktimes of some shots I did for DUNE, I have been testing the CD on as many amiga systems as possible. brought it to the meeting and found the new MPlayer for OS4 works great, btw.
but the real reason i go? We Laughted and laughted and laughted.:lol: all day long we are having a freaking party! even when we don't have anything "new" to look at, we play with whatever there is. because it's all about just enjoying it all.
do I think my CD will be a big seller???
of course not. if it sells 10, I'll be happy.
I'm doing it because over the years my IFX articles have helped people and i get a kick out of that.
it doesn't matter if it's one person or one hundred.
i guess because i never had any real hope that amiga would GET BIG, i'm not really disappointed that it hasn't.
I do think that kids coming here and poking toothpicks in Wayne's ankles is really annoying and it would be nice if there was a way to make that stop.
after all, if someone tried that over at Lou's we'd all just throw the kid down the stairs. or something equally effective. :lol:
I would miss some people here. But, as always, I bow to whatever Wayne wants to do because this is HIS place and we are just visiting.
