Why do you stick with the Amiga?

Why do you stick with the Amiga?

You know, I'm not even sure.

Thinking about it I can't logically or objectively give reasons for sticking with the machine.

I guess it's more sentimental than anything else.

You know, Roj, I take it back.  That's some real insight you've got there: it's entirely fair to compare an OS that hasn't matured or advanced in over a decade and a half to various flavors of PC operating systems from the same era.

Of course, if you compare amiga os to modern OS's, well, then, ot just falls apart.

an OS that hasn't matured or advanced in over a decade and a half

I wouldn't exactly say it hasn't advanced. I also use MorphOS, and consider it just as much Amiga as the classic. It may not have matured, but in some ways this is a good thing.

In some ways, yes, In some ways, no, but that's all the further I'll go with it.

Hi,

1)  AmigaOS is simple to use, compact in footprint and not a bloated bug ridden piece of s%^t!

2) Ever run or even find a Windows program on a single or even two floppies today?  Amiga apps are also small and compact and unbloated.

3) REAL working multi-tasking that does not hang every time you try to do something else.

4) It's the Amiga man!!

I use the Amiga for as many things as I am able whether business or personal.  I only use PC's for things I must.  I will continue to do so until the day someone comes out with hardware and an OS that matches and exceeds Amiga's capabilities... until then...

Take it light!

For me it is stress relief from troubleshooting and getting annoyed with Windows XP for 8 hours each day at work.

I should be happy not to have to use the win98 as I did several years ago

Hi,

I use the Amiga basically because it is a fun computer.
When I see the demos, listen to the music and run the
programs that common everyday people have made for the Amiga
I know that it is a fun computer.
Do you see this on th PC's, not really!
Do you this on the MACS, heck no, they are still looking for
the on/off switch. They need specific instructions on how to
use their computers, (right Wayne).

Anyhow it was/is the people that made the Amiga. People like
Wayne, Wilse, Glaucus, Roi, merple, and all the others on
Amiga.Org etc. Lets face it Amiga people are a team, a team
that made Amiga computin fun.

In other words Miner and the original Amiga designers incorp.
created their team work into the minds and users of the Amiga.

Oh yeah, when was the last time you turned on your winblows
or rotten core machine to do something creative so that you
could share it with the PC or MAC team (if there is one).

Creativity, music, demos, programs and games, all on one
machine, WELCOME TO THE CLUB sponsered by AMIGA.
