Is emulation based x86 machines in Amiga cases really a no no? or......

[Ancalimon]

I sometimes wonder when people say that a computer running AmigaOS4 is not really an Amiga.

So according to this logic, the calculator tool running under AmigaOS is not really a calculator?

Why do we need the primitive (by todays standards) Amiga custom chips to call the computer an Amiga?

While some people were using Amiga's just for playing games without touching AmigaOS ever, some of us were using Amigas purely for AmigaOS not caring about custom chips at all. Actually some of us were using RTG graphics cards and sounds cards to overcome the limitations of the Custom chips!

Simply make the new AmigaOS x86 emulate custom chips using "custom chipset drivers" instead of running things inside UAE. That way everything will be seamless.

Because that's what Amigas are: Computers from the past, and some people can't seem to get over that fact, and they have to keep assigning the name Amiga to computers that aren't Amigas.

No. Only the Amigas from Amiga1000 to Amiga4000T are computers from the past and anyone can continue to fix and use them.

An Amiga does not need Custom chipsets to be called an Amiga. I don't want to use "for example Wordworth" at this age either. So dump classic compatibility altogether.

The last Amigas were made by Escom, and apparently there are people who can't accept this, which is not relevant of course. They can believe what ever they want to believe, but it doesn't change what Amigas are.

And last PC's had 286 cpus with ISA slots for expansions and 640k base memory and run DOS.
