All this curiosity was aroused, originally, when reading an ST forum where they bemoaned the fact the ST was dead while the Amiga scene was still very much active.

Yes the Amiga scene is still active.

I didn't think it was all that unreasonable to use a "souped-up" Amiga for WP and the net, although now remembering laborious surfing on my 200mhz dreamcast I have some perspective.

The issue is the Amiga hardware is so dated it requires alot of souping-up just to match the performance of the Dreamcast.

The problem with the PPC system that offer Amiga compatibility (AmigaOne/PegasusPPC) is they are not very accessible thus software that takes advantage of the new hardware mostly doesn't exist.
