You dont have to leave the Amiga when you switch to another platform?. You can use whatever computer you like to get the job done.

I use a Mac mini for browsing/email and multitrack recording
an A1200/030 for 8 bit record sampling and sample tracking and a PC for Video editing.

If they ever release some kind of modern upgrade for my A1200 to run OS4 then I'll probably buy it. I might even buy a new motherboard for OS4 if it doesnt cost $1000

I've never had a complaint about my Mac Mini since I bought it a year and half ago. I ended up putting a gig of ram in it and getting an external firewire drive for it to speed things up a bit.

I wouldnt use it as a video editing or a gaming machine but as a multitrack sound recording machine it preforms pretty well.

@motorollin,

I started asking for that as soon as the Mac Mini came out. I didnt seem like a bad idea to me. You know, making money for your company and stuff to develop the OS further :roll:

I know, its more complex then that :crazy:

Why?  


You know, because of licencing issues, no available tech docs , politics, and all the other crap that keeps the flames going around here.
