swap: my SGI o2 for an amiga 4000

[stopthegop]

The word "powerful" is meaningless (a cliche, really) because just like "innovative", "fast", and "intuitive" it has been over-used and abused, especially in technology circles, for years.   Elephants are "powerful".  I don't want one of those in my livingroom, either.  That SGI may indeed be more "powerful" than any Amiga.  But no way is it better.  I will be very suprised if you find a taker (I mean sucker..) to do that trade.

You've obviously never even touched an SGI.

So in your view anyone who hasn't touched an SGI is an idiot?  Okaay..  

I think most of us here have at least 'touched' an SGI.  I'm not an expert on SGI systems such as yourself, but I have enough experience with them to know they are not as easy to use as an Amiga.  Not 100% sure but I also don't think the OS is modular, as the Amiga OS is.  Since your expertise with SGI is so much better than everyone else's, perhaps you can confirm this?

pixie, you can obviously read, but let me help you out a little with comprehension.

Thanks for providing me with my "idiotic quote of the week"

To which orange replied:

there is nothing wrong with that 'quote'...

See how this works?   B00tdisk asserts I'm an idiot for making a comment she disagrees with, and orange an 'idiot' by association.  Similarly, she states it factually "obvious" that orange has never touched an SGI.  If you follow the statements, the implication is clear: That I'm an 'idiot' for saying something she doesn't like and orange is an 'idiot' for defending it.  Just as its 'obvious' neither of us has ever touched an SGI.  Follow?
