Just to shed some light on my point of view (very new to amiga). I stumbled onto amiga by references to dpaint. i really enjoy pixel art, anyways. I am quite surprised by how expandable, and upgradeable an amiga is. you can still make them a decently fast machine, and they haven't been in production in years. one of the main reasons i bought my 4000D was to get back to the basic of hardware/programming. that and I love to fiddle with computers. to me, amiga OS is similar to BeOS, which I loved. with the way computers are heading this day, a small affordable "media pc" would be the way to go to get amiga out there. of course this is a newbie current opinion, and should probably be taken lightly. if there were more people interested in actual computers and not just using them for mudane tasks, the amiga scene would be much larger.
my 2 1/2 cents
