Why? Well........

Well I just been back for a year, between 1994 to 2009 was a complete blank for me.
 
I have seen lots of improvements, but when you are back in the Scene, yes, it's all going too slow.
Prices are skyhigh, except for Jens work, but that makes it even harder to get a good working setup.
That does give you reason to think, certainly when you have collected as many Amiga's as I have.
I was on a roll because I can afford it, but if you didn't have much to spend, than you would think twice about buying a full upgraded Amiga 1200 which is about 17 years old, certainly when a PS3 or Xbox 360 is much better and even cheaper.
But I still enjoy it, it's not a big rush anymore, I'm cool with what I have and if I have a golden shot at the few things on my wishlist, then I will add it to the collective :)
 
The future is always an uncertain factor, but I do know that the work being done right now is what is keeping the Amiga alive for now.
Yes, it could be that what I invested last year and now could be worth nothing in 5 years.
Could also be that everything I own is worth 4 times as much as it is now.
That's the thing with the future, you just don't know.
 
So have a :pint: , sit back,, relax, and enjoy your Amiga(s).
