idea.. do you know the laptop.org project? There are side projects involving the use of old hardware for anti digital divide purposes.. Shouldn't it be a good thing to  develope a browser based on mozilla for os4 or even older releases and try to pass the old amiga hardware as anti digital divide solution for the poor countries as a cheap solution? I mean.. even with an old p200 and w98 I can browse the internet almost flawlessly.. The governments pour millions of dollars in these anti digital divide projects for the poor.. Amiga could be a competitor and the installed base would magically start to grow again.

I bet there are many many old amigas buried in attics and so on.. an anti digital divide campaign from any government would led such antiques to get to see the light again.. consequent price drop and the likes

You haven't looked at the prices for Amiga hardware recently, have you? Or are you just trolling?  :-?
