Redrumloa and AmiBay - Update

Sorry, but you're not comparing apples to apples here.

Look at vintage cars. Would you laugh at someone who bought an ancient Ford from the 1920's, for instance? Even if the price was similar to that of a modern car?

The PC computers can not be compared to the Amigas and Ataris.. not even to the Sun Microsystem or Digital Equipment machines. They are rare, they are different, they still have this "fun" aura about them. So what if I can buy a dual 500MHz XEON system for X money..  if I can pay a little more and get a QUAD 100MHz SPARCstation 20.. with 2GB of ram and some SBUS cards..

We ARE from another planet..  this isn't just some piece of hardware, it's a piece of life.

It's hard to see who's responding to who in this forum

I know the original point, a professional seller letting off an inappropriate remark. However that wasn't the point I tried to make here.

I wanted to make it clear that the comparison you did to the PC and Mac forums, just isn't valid. You can never compare us (well, maybe against the vintage PPC stuff) cause the PC boards aren't that interesting or special to begin with.

THAT's my point, and that's all I'm trying to get across.
