I agree.  There are dealers and users that demo OS4 all the time.  Even if they aren't an invite to a show is all that is needed.  I think there are many people that are simply so broke and so used to picking up cheap peecee that Amiga OS is not really for them (small market, small economies of scale).
And that goes without saying also for some old classic hardware for Commodore Amigas.
I'm simply calling a spade a spade, not beating around the bush.


Where?  Is this Europe you are refering to?  Because in NYC in the USA the local Amiga club is now down to meeting about once every three months in a sandwich shop for two hours.  And there is no storefront to go see a dealer for such.  And this is a city known for having access usually to most things.  What would some guy living in Vermont do to see the OS live before buying if someone in NYC can't in any good accessible form?

Oh wow, some new American works, it helps to have Google to look things up


Never have I heard that on the East Coast.  I would not peg that as a new American "work", which I think you mean to say in the Queens English instead as "word(s)".   :lol:
