No… I’m not suffering at all. Actually the opposite! And correct time is not standing still. Development goes on and the world keeps on turning with or without a Amiga computer. So yes I moved on but still enjoy my Amiga after a great break of… (this is a hard one) twelve years…  

I like, enjoy keeping alive the machines that could have made a great difference in the world where we live in today… if just more people/companies had purchased a Amiga back then.

What it brings to me?... nothing in fact. Only a hobby where I like to put time in because of its history, because back in 1985 there was a Amiga 1000, made by people that believed in it, with a two button mouse a Motorola 68000 processor  at  7 MHz, 512K, 4096 colors on the screen at once! Three custom made chips. A operating system also years ahead of its time. Sound capabilities that are also superior for its time. It also could emulate a 286. The makers of a PC and Apple would have to work much harder if Commodore  had a different marketing approach back then trying to sell a C64 on power rocket fuel!… so when it would have made a different approach it would sell more?... earn more money…  but would it survive?…  would it?...  really? We will never know…

Well to keep it short: We keep the Amiga alive and it gives me great satisfaction to do so!
