some ppl are very easy to impress I guess!! LOL My point is did you tell him how much it COST you to burn that CD?
"I also showed him Jabberwocky and other Internet stuff, SimpleMail Newscoaster, Yam."
did you show him how well the browers work? thats alwasy IMPRESSIVE!
It's not about being negative, its about being realistic.
When he gets an amiga he should know, it's just for tinkering, otherwise he will be deapointed and out a LOT of cash....
My guess is that he was impressed because he thought that Amigas were ancient history that just weren't capable of anything like the stuff mentioned above. The fact that an old, out of date, 40 MHz computer that you thought was only good for playing (the original) lemmings can do these things, could be seen as impressive.
