Amiga 4000T just sold for $4000 on eBay

As someone who uses WinUAE, Minimigs and real Amigas, all I can say is that you can "feel" the difference between emulation and the genuine article.

It's like asking someone why they want to drive a 1960's Jaguar instead of a 2011 model, when the new model is just so much faster and comfortable.  

I agree but at the same time... I think that I would actually prefer WinUAE than spending that amount of money on it. Also the NG amigas feals just as much Amiga as my a4k does.

I agree.  $1000 would buy a very nice PC setup with Amiga Forever and the remaining $3000 would pay for a flight to Rio de Janero where I would spend a week shagging my way around Copacabana.

I certainly wouldn't waste $4000 on an old computer!  

lol, sounds like a much way to spend $4000 :-) .
