We have a few business clients still using Amigas as well- the most suprising application was for train rolling-stock testing.


Really? I realise you won't be able to say which company, but can you say which applications they use?
I'm in rolling stock myself running stress analyses using FEA software (on PCs of course) - I'd be really interested to see what is done on Amigas. The only thing I can think is something like Maple V.
Or possibly using Amigas with in-house software and custom hardware connected to RS232s, but I'd still have thought they'd have switched to PCs years ago.
