what i DONT miss when using the amiga.
- random drive defrags/virus scans/spyware hunts/windows defender kicking in and hammering the disk right when i need it most.
- the desktop appearing and then maybe 3-4 minutes later, i can actualy click on something to launch it, as all the little system tray aplets launch
- having to wait for it to boot, a reset on an amiga is not a painfull proposition /really/ even with USB/tcpip stacks and graphics card drivers.
- having to "shut down" rather than "off"
- dumb system file structure.
- stolen focus. when i'm typing in one window, i don't expect the window focus to change because someone i know has logged in on MSN, or as my web-browser loads, if i type something into the google toolbar, i don't expect to loose half of it because you've finally loaded the homepage, and switch focus to that while i'm typing.

I totally have to agree at these points :-)

What I miss most, is a updated web-browser.
*WHEN* I can afford a SAM, I'll probably be happy :-)
(but I'll still use my old miggys!)
