[Silly] How amiga communities work

[tone007]

a select few who have crazy ideas of giving up the defacto standard platform they are on today and moving over to Amiga 100% and and become anti-establishment all over again.  tj

Sounds like you should've bought my AmigaOne instead of my CSPPC.

edit: or in addition to!

edit again: unless you weren't referring to yourself.

Idiot is such a strong word, I believe the preferred nomenclature is "fanboy."

Well, there's comparing the technology subjectively (which obviously makes no sense) and then there's comparing the feeling the respective technologies gave you.  Maybe the "new and fun" factor of the iPhone made someone feel like they did when the Amiga was the "new and fun" thing.

I'm not an old-school Amiga user by any means, and I was quite bored with computers when I decided to pick up an Amiga a couple of years ago.  I know the "new and fun" feeling, and understand people seeking it out.

It's not about computers, it's about feelings!

edit: I will also add, I'm not an iPhone user.

..but getting the software working on an Amiga is (more than) half the fun!

I've found once I get everything working right, I tend to stop using the system and move on to another one.  I guess I just love fitting square blocks into round holes.
