I like my amigas because they are unique and interesting to work with.  I have had one since the 1000 days... BUT I am getting tired of paing big money to fix increasing problems with these old systems.  Prices are out out control and functionality is pretty weak, hate to say but thinking of ditching mine to get some free space and maybe some cash I can use on new toys...

BTW, my Amiga's are very souped up... 060, even ppc, GFX cards  ect... not interested in PCI od USB, these add on cause most of the trouble.
Emulation works nice with imageFX, but generally it always has issues for me... IOW does not work crashes and so on.

When people say the Amiga is a simple machine that simply does what it's told, I wonder what the heck are these people doing? Talk about hard to expand, tricky settings and abnormal stuff that you just have to know!  Just read the forum and you will see all sorts of hardware and software issues that NOT easy to fix.

But just like vic20 I love them....even if they cost a fortune and don't do much of anything... it just getting harder to justify is all.
