I agree with you uncharted. Pushing the low-end is great satisfaction. I got the same feeling after installing Amiga SYS 4 recently and made a jump from WB3.0. That’s kind of equivalent of moving from win 98 to vista. My old A1200 just shined of pride and capability. It was great.
This discussion, that is about to turn into full scale war, is completely pointless to me. Why? Because I hate Mac and love pc or vice versa. No. Because I care about Amiga.
I care about the vintage.
I care about AROS and MORPH OS.
And I care about the new Amigas and OS4 even if don’t have all of these machines and os’s.
PC and Mac is just beasts of burden.
My hope is that all the Amiga os’s move towards cheap x86 x64 hardware so more people can afford it. I have not dicided yet if I will go for a SAM.
I keep my powermachine(PC) in a closet with its own ventilation that suck out excess heat to the main chimney.
I don’t see it. I don’t hear it, despite roaring fans, and I don’t care how it looks. But it takes care of business.
