I program in ARexx (...and AmosPro ;), pixel graphics with PPaint and DPaint, play the odd game etc. Basically, I just fool around with it :)

tbh, not that much.  Let's see... tinkering with the OS, programming (usually with StormC these days), email (YAM), playing the occasional game, writing the occasional letter (Wordworth).  Some of the stuff I can do with my Amiga, I use the PC for - unfortunately my Amiga is a tad unreliable and underspecced to play mp3s or videos at decent quality, and web browsing is just frustrating.  I'm hoping an AmigaOne with OS4 will solve my problems, providing I can do web browsing effectively and get images off my digital camera (the two things I use this PC for), I can ditch the PC.

Oh, and I've been playing GTA on the PC recently as well (it's available for free download), so I might have to take advantage of that Payback offer as well.

Well... With my A4000 I like to play, turn on the computer and see if it'll crash before I can launch any software. :P

My main system is my Pegasos/MOS system (as my high-spec PC died).  

I use it to surf around, check e-mail.  I use FroggerNG and MPlayer to watch most video files (only found a few that aren't supported).  I occasionally use PageStream 4.1 for some DTP, ImageFX 4.5, FXPaint Lite and ArtEffect3 (can't find my serial number to get ArtEffect 4 to work.) to tweak graphics.  Play around with Hollywood 1.5.  Run several emulators like UAE, Bochs.  Lately I've been using ScummVM to play Sam and Max (dug those disks out of my closet.)

Umm...  I've really got to get back to programming, but I haven't touched C and C++ in sooooooo long being a full-time JAVA developer.  I'm also hoping that I can get to doing some Video Capture on this beast, as that's really the only thing that I'm missing from when I was using my PC.

I currently look at my A1200T and scream " I need a new busboard" about twice a day.  Other than that I just like to muck about with it, most things I do on it I can do on my main machine though (PC).
Restraining orders are just another way of saying I love you!
