Amiga: Hobby or Everyday Computing?

[amigakidd]

I don't have a real Amiga, but use Amiga Forever and WinUAE
as my "software Amiga computing" needs. I love playing with my Amiga software every weekend (the only time I find time to play) I thought about this: This is just my hobby.
There are no limitations and no restrictions.

How many of you use an Amiga for everyday computing (I mean earn a living) using one.

Is owning an Amiga or emulating one just a hobby?
Why do we bother? What makes it so different to owning
a PC/Mac? Do we become special when we own an Amiga or a copy of Amiga Forever? Is it a cult following?

I think because it has that 68K charm, unlike todays Winintellymac corey duo machines. Like you said 80s and 90s.
I grew up in the early 90s, didn't have an Amiga, but seen it in commercials. I had a Sega Genesis. Some Amiga games made their way into the Genesis.

I think of the Amiga as a Hobby, a retrocomputing experience
to get away from my stressful job. It's like fixing a vintage car on a Saturday morning.

Did you know that AmigaDOS was based on TRIPOS language?
Similar to UNIX.
Try googling it. I found it to be interesting
