Speaking of relevancy and after all these years, I think it's great (entertaining at the least) to actually use or read about others using "old" software. I'm with a a few here when I say it doesn't matter how old something is. If that were the case, most of us may as well have been put out to pasture after so many cycles. lol
Joking aside, I'm about to delve a little deeper into the ImageFX program, just for the fun of it. Will it or my 060 equipped A2500 handle a 25mb RAW file from my DSLR? My 2.1ghz G5 even chokes and gags a little with 'em! I'm not even going to try to edit a photo that large on an Amiga. lol BUT... whether or not someone uses their Amiga's for commercial gain or entertainment purposes - it's all the same. We need to remember that the computer is just a machine and there's no reason to scoff at how old it or its software is. If it still works - use it!
Same could be said about hi-fi gear, furniture, appliances - whatever. Personally, I've gotten into this pattern of reading an AmigaWorld or Amazing Computing issue right before bed (pretty much own both subscriptions in their entirety) and am sort of "re-living" the days of the Amiga through reading. It's been a lot of fun and I'm learning new things about my computers every day. Amiga is compelling that way at least. Can't imagine ever picking up an old MacWorld or Byte magazine ('cept the one that featured the A3000) and getting all nostalgic over either of those platforms
BTW: Finally got the right adapter so I can use my IBM Model M keyboard with my Mac....
She's old, heavy and loud. Best damn keyboard I've ever used, but if she were a woman, I'd have ditched her long ago. lmao
