4) Why is it so easy ot get TCP/IP on a C64 for free, but almost impossible to get even a LEGAL one on Amiga even for big buck$ ?!?


Someone once said, and this was years ago ('97 or '98), that the CBM scene was "alive and well" because people had acknowledged that the CBM itself was "dead"; conversely, the Amiga scene was in (and perhaps still is in) such a terrible state because people refuse to admit that it is a technological dead end, and they spend more time in shouting matches about how no, it's NOT dead rather than treating it like the hobby/retro platform that it is.

I made a hash of that; IIRC it was stated a lot more clearly by the original author.
