Well you can, sure. But my 5 dollar Compaq Athlon can pretend to be my old Amiga and run all that software as well as do the internet. ;-)
Hi,
Agree with you on this point, but it still has some glitches like while it is playing music, the music will shut off while loading a picture off an Aminet disk. The original Amiga never misses a heart beat.
Let see the best thing about owning an Amiga when I bought it was that it could run IBM programs like Lotus 123, and Dbase with transformer. My IBM PC type machine gave out and I had to buy a computer, what made me buy the Amiga, it was something new and when the salesman showed me Transformer it impressed me. Since I was using Lotus 123 to program spreadsheets and Lotus worked on the Amiga I bought it. Never looked back from there. One thing I could never figure out is why they added more letters to the drives, A: is a lot easier to type than df0: and the sentences they used to make a diskcopy or copy a file. Later it just came natural and never noticed the extra key steps.
