Hi,

What makes an Amiga an Amiga?

Very interesting question, could it be the white case, how about the "A" on the key board, being able to reset it by pressing the CNTRL Amiga Amiga keys,
how about the gronk gronk gronk when a floppy loads.
Have you ever considered the multi-tasking?
or
The slip sliding screens up and down
The playing of music while you were working on a spreadsheet
or how about the
listening to music while you painted a picture in DPaint.

But

What makes Amiga the Amiga is listening to Amigadave cry about asking the same question over and over again, and that question will never be resolved, and neither will Amigadaves frustration on just what makes an Amiga an Amiga?

Will the answer ever be found?

I have no idea what your talking about, so here is a doggy with a small pancake on his head.

MorphOS is a MAC done a little better

Hi,

How about still having and using it 20 years after its demise.

and

you know what, it still works as good as the first exciting day that I turned it on. I just don't get the same feel from my PC.
Not even in emulator mode.
Don't know why

It just is what it is and thats all that it is

AN AMIGA!!!

Hi,

@Iggy,

How can I attack another pancake head. It is just unfair, I wasn't ragging on AmigaDave, jsut trolling. AmigaDave is one of the best people on Amiga.org. I jsut caught him on something and wanted to bust him on it.

Amigadave, if I caused you any distress please accept my humble apology for saying that you where crying about a question that has been brought up again, and again and again, and again.

but

What really does make an Amiga an Amiga?
