My absolute, worst moments were November 2000, and November 2001.

No computer to be seen, AND not particularly an Amiga, either. (elate/intent/Taos/Qnx, I didn't know what it all even meant, no need to explain, it's kind of gone now.)

I was especially crushed, because I started bragging to people that it was FINALLY, going to appear out of the darkness.

Now I'm using a w98se, 2.26 GHz 533MHz FSB, with 1 Gig Ram and a Ti4600 card, and guess what, I'm ready to throw it into the Pacific Ocean. I cannot stand it! It takes 92 seconds to boot up, and it's using a RAID card with two 7200 RPM HD in striped mode!!!!

Why's it take so long to boot up, I really don't know/don't care, it's all ms CRAP!!! ain't it?

You know what gets me, after about 5 or 6 days on 24/7, the computer SLOWS TO A CRAWL. Really. It responds slower than my A2000.

You may wonder how it goes so long without a re-boot, well, I only use IE, Outlook express and Notepad, that's how. Oh, and I'm running RC5 in the background, hence the 24/7. IE sometimes crashes it. Notpad is pathetic for a 53,248 byte program. Memacs does WAY more, and is just about the same size.

AmigaOne! Awaiting A1 with the HIGHEST of expectations!

So I guess that A500, 600, 1000, 2000, CDTV, CD32, are pure garbage then? Thanks for posting here.

Hello Darth_X,

At the moment, don't have enough for AF 5.1, but, I think I'm going to go for it soon. Full verion CD.

Hello MarkTime,

Many have suggested wy2k, but I already feel burned with w98se, I don't want to go buy another ms piece of junk. I'll just buy an extra piece of Amiga SW.

Hello JetRacer,

I have a 400 Meg ram disk going, and tried to put the virtual ram (you mean swap file, right) there, it wasn't selectable as an option. I ran the computer both ways, with and without the swap file going, same problem occurred.

AmigaOne! These problems will soon be gone, from grief to relief!
