I openly flaunt and actively talk about the Amiga to just about anyone that will listen. And when company comes over, they're more than likely to notice a system or two hanging about. Most of the people I know are very interested in non-mainstream computing. They barely have an awareness of it, but that gives me a chance to talk about the SAM, Pegasos, A1 OS4.1, MorphOS, AROS & Efika stuff. Only a friend or two could care less about retro computing and the advances/activity that surrounds it. Most agree though that as far as computing goes, the Amiga was something special. And when you talk about some of the aforementioned, you should see the look on their faces. The communities and new stuff going on are not too bad for a "dead" system, eh?  lol
