Where is Amiga used today?

[smerf]

Skilgannon suggested that we start this thread, so I'll do so here.  (Maybe such a thread already exists?)  Anyway, I'll place the first entry......

Bowlero Lanes (bowling ally), Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.  A3000 and A4000 for automated scoring system.

Hi,

I know NASA isn't using them today, they replaced them with PC's back in 1999. I bought one of them back then, the reason NASA used them was because they were the only computer that would self start after a power outage. I also bought one from Pixar when they sold out on the Amiga's.

Anyhow

I have seen an Amiga 1000 in Bill Gates office, it is sitting on one of his office shelves, and I have also seen an Amiga in a junk yard, but I really don't know if it was being used or was there for another purpose. I know where I work they use the Amiga for a door holder and I have seen an Amiga 3000 filled with cement being used as a boat anchor.

You've been in Bill Gate's office!  What do you do for a living?

I was helping to set up computers for the gov't and was taking a tour of Micro soft, Mr. Gates was trying to sell us Microsoft word at the time, and if you believe that I have some swamp land in Florida that I will sell ya. Actually saw it in a picture in a rag that was for Amiga, Micro soft was writing basic for the Amiga at that time.

Any whose. if I could get a chance to visit Micro soft I would probably burn it down.
