You said "Is the Amiga of any use anymore?"
Well I use a Spreadsheet TurboCalc 4.0, and StarAMPlan. FinalWriter97 and Wordworth6.0 for word processing, AWeb for the Internet. MicroGoldED for text editing.
Let me see ohhh yes SimpleMail for Emails, NewsCoaster for the Newsgroups.
Amplifer for MP3 music, MUIBase for my database records, PersonalPaint 7.1b and PerfectPaint.
Not to mention a load of other stuff I also use. Like Dopus 4.17 and Dopus 5.5.
So I think the (my) Amiga is very usefull.
Ok to be fair not as fast as these modern PC`s but what the hell it works for me. I don`t get let down by any of the programs I use, now to me that is more important.
I think if you have the software that you need for the things you need to do then thats even better.
But I suppose there will be those who will still say the Amiga is dead lets not bother, Ohhhh yes I forgot to say USB something as yet I do not have but I intent to get it. Also MakeCD with the free serial and doing alot of CD burning.
Is there any thing else I left out to say the Amiga is not worth bothering with?
The Amiga to this day is still an under rating machine.
Not the all powerful PC, not non the less still very userable. Did I mention the Mediator for the PCI cards?
