A modern OS is a OS that requires 1000 times the resources of an old OS to accomplish the same basic tasks.
Zing!No, but seriously, so much of what's being thrown around in this thread is just clippings from the Grand List of Things PC Users Have Made Fun of Amiga Users for Not Having. You can
hear the rationalization - "well, if I can play movies, and I can use Skype, and I can run Office, and I can play all the latest 3D games, and I can run all the latest PC software on all the latest PC hardware, then
nobody will ever be able to make fun of my Amiga again!" Well, no shít, Sherlock, that's because
it'll be a PC! Oh, and also nobody was ever dissuaded from mocking someone by having the basis of their mockery taken away, so don't count on that even if you
do succeed in redefining "Amiga" to mean "another damn generic PC system."
The biggest obstacle to the Amiga platform and community isn't hardware or software - it's the sheer amount of
time wasted on tilting at windmills because somewhere, at some point, some PC user told us they might be giants.
