I'll tell you what makes an Amiga in my books...

a few months ago, I was going to show Mr Beanbag to a friend's 13 year old daughter.  I was clicking through windows on the workbench.

Her: what kind of computer is this?
Me: Amiga 1200
Her: What is that, how old is it?
Me: *points at (c) Commodore 1992 at top of Workbench Screen*
Her: How come it's so fast?

LOL.

Reminds of my what my son said when he saw me boot up my A4000 CSII 68060:

"How come they don't make computers like this anymore?"

Amiga is many things to many people.  To me its a computer that puts the user in control and is efficient and elegant..
