I HATE the term "Miggy"

i Agree, call it what it is. It was hard enough to get AMIGA known in the world without silly nicknames like miggy.

It could be worse (i.e. 'Speccy' )

But seriously, nicknames come about either as a convenience (like abbreviations/contractions) or as an endearment - I think it's nice that the Amiga is so fondly remembered/regarded by some that they call it 'Miggy' - C64's are referred to as 'bread-bins' and what do people call Atari ST's???

The fact that in 2015, soon to be 2016 we have various modern-ish OS choices and new hardware and software being developed is a testimony to how influential the 'Miggy's been in the lives and imaginations of users throughout the decades

Another good one, its BreadBox, after all the C64 was invented in America .. lol
