why "revive" Amiga????
my amiga have never been dead! and now that i have a THREE OS laptop, i can tell you that while windows2000 is the most stable of that list of horror shows, it's STILL windows! and while I like my linux (RH8) - it's stable and fun to use and hs some cool programs, it does have a few wierd things about it. like the fact that if you want to install a newer nVidia driver you have to get a geek friend to research the process and then recompile the kernal and ghod knows what else. dance around standing stones at nite?
anyway, as soon as i got WinUAE up I breathed a sign of relief. I was seeing an old friend again. it's not perfect, but it's wonderful.

and THAT's why I want to still have Amiga in whatever form i can get it. (and my real ones still work)
Amiga really IS my friend.

the reason there are alternatives to windoze is simply because people WANT and NEED them. some people are simply not happy with the utter dumbness of windows.

it annoys me. I love AfterEffects and i'm glad i can do that, but i would prefer another OS. i'm spoilt. the end!

(ps, my linux never crashes. there's something to be said about nerds :-D )
