It really depends on what do you use and what you want from the Amiga/AmigaOS. Unfortunately (or perhaps it's a better thing, after all) there will be always different requirements and expectations from the users. Personally, I'm more for the custom, albeit costly hw choice.

Someone fill me in: what software runs on OS4 thats worth all this hassle?

OS4-only software I use often are DVPlayer and MPlayer for videos, MEncoder for VideoCD authoring (only for the video conversion part) and Milkytracker for module tracking. There are some useful software that use Cygnix-X11, like Abiword and Gnumeric. Other interesting software is the Last.FM client and the Jooleem puzzle game which I'm addicted to these days :)
