Just think of Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7, and where those reside, and replace those OSes with "Amiga OS" (not in name, mind you, but I mean put Amiga OS in those arenas, on the same hardware). THEN, Amiga will be back. Til then, it's DEAD.  :-P

...and with that I say I'm sorely disappointed in the WinDoze platform. Seems to me more has been done in 15 years with AmigaOS than has WinBlows. How many times are they going to re-invent the wheel before they finally have something worth a $hit? It was an ugly and bloated OS since day one and it's an ugly, inefficient OS now. Despite the "advances" processor manufacturers have made. Exponentially, nothing has changed except it's now trying to mock the look and feel of MacOS.


True about the GUI, pariculary the icons, the way they are stored...
Now, where are these magical AmigaOS improvements that have escaped all my senses ?  :shrug:
