I dont know how this thread started off as a battle between CUSA and a case designer, then Moochie got the limelight and now we are arguing what makes an Amiga a true Amiga..  Whao!  only in Amiga land :)

I wonder what Moochie would think of all this commotion :-/

In that case, would you say that the original amiga hardware had a superior design to modern PCs ?

They are hard to compare. There was much more attention to detail and Amiga was highly original. But I think that's not the point.

The point is: Amiga never was about the brand. We would have loved it if it had been called the Atari 2000FX or IBM Junior for that matter.

Today the folks feel protective about the name, because that's all they have to find people who loved those machines too. If you use the name for something else it is hard for them to find what they are looking for.

It is pretty arrogant to assume I'm ignorant just because I'm saying things you don't like.
