... I used to be a true hardcore Amiga fan, until the reality of the computer world slapped me on my ass....

The Amiga is meant to stay in the past and for us to just enjoy for what it used to be.  It is almost like trying to throw new hardware to the Commodore 64 and trying to compete with today's computers.  People make newer pieces of hardware for the Amiga and Commodore 64 computers to just make it easier as far as moving files to one place to another (I thank the XM1541 cable on backing up all my old C64 disks.)

No new OS, no new hardware, no new anything.  It is basically a joke to try to compete with today's computing world.  So what if we weren't trying to compete with "PC" and "Mac", why put in all the effort to just improving on old designs. For its time, it was great, but Commodore went bankrupt for a reason. Want backward's compatibility? Fire up Win UAE or some form of an emulator.  Its basically like the slim PS3s, took out backwards compatiblity because it isn't necessary.

Either way, I am not here to get burned on or poke at something I said. I am basically stating what was on my mind.

Then that means Commodore went bankrupt because of it having the wrong people.  Doesn't matter now, its history.
