Poll Question:

Which word, in your opinion, best describes AMIGA today--DEAD or ALIVE?....
*note: the question has nothing to do with the future. It is about the 'state of Amiga' as you see it.


For me the answer is simple. Obviously we can't be talking about a going financial concern, market share or anything near leading technology. In the same way that Beethoven's 5th Symphony, or Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture are classics alive an well in the hearts and minds of anyone who has ever heard them, the Amiga is alive and well in the hearts and minds of anyone who has ever used one. A 386 or 486 PC, Windows 3.11 or Windows 95 has never have that.. Windows XP or Vista will never have it, they will simply be forgotten. Mac draws close but is sterile in comparison.

Amiga lives,, okay...  And anyone who disagrees will get a good dose of Vogon poetry; "Just see if I don't"

ALIVE
