No matter how much the technology world changes there is always fun to be had with Amiga computers.

For some it's a retro hobby but for some it is the only computer they ever use.

Given that other technologies have surpassed the capabilities of our favourite machines, do you find it embarrassing to admit you are still an Amiga Junkie or do you openly flout or even still evangelise it?

It would be interesting to get a snapshot of how the Amiga scene stands in this particular stage in in time.

The poll is multi choice and anonymous. Try to be as honest as possible.
I'm pretty much open about my 'geeky Amiga hobby' to anyone that comes into contact with me ;) I'll admit though... not as much as I used to be. There was slightly a bit more hope ten or so years ago than there is now and that's saying something, so a hobby it definitely is.

It's always nice to take a trip into the world of nostalgia every time you switch an Amiga on. I shall always remain bitter that the Amiga has never truly been rewarded with what it deserved, but I guess that's part of the 'fun' of still using one and being part of a wonderful little community :)
