I didn't want to switch to a pc but I was forced to. I was a musician and I needed 16 bit sound, and more channels.
A 100mhz pentium running with an sb16 let me do 32 channels. This was too attractive at the price to stay amiga. Besides this, yes vga games
like wing commander, x wing and others sealed the deal for me.
I could have bought an amiga 3000 at the time instead. I could not justify
the expense difference in comparing the capabilities, speed, hard drive space,ram and so on.
This amiga trend seems to continue today, in that people hocking amiga hardware and software want you to pay too high a price for too little power and capability.
My phone's browser is better than os4's, and my phone also has more computing power than most os4 systems.
I love amiga but I have needs that these pricey amiga systems can't fill.
Until then, I love playing with my emulated os 3.x amiga on my linux box,
I also love aros, and hope to see it improve so much that it can be your every day computer, needs smp, better browsing, and more native apps.
