>...Oh and I've had a ton of messages asking what changed my opinions so fast after getting home. I would have to say it was several things over the years, but the price of MorphOS with its restrictive hardware lock to one machine was the final draw for me if I had to pick one thing.

Surely you don't think that Amiga is only what is in the OS?  I have running basically an OS-less Amiga for many years now-- just transmitting stuff from PC to the Amiga (via the floppy port) in real-time and letting it do its thing.  One mistake people make with the Amiga is trying to see if current applications can run with it, but that really is unfair to do.  If you take an Amiga application/game targetted for it, I find it runs great and usually they are highly optimized and better than their imitations on the PC or other platform.
