- Greg, please keep this sort of diatribe in the comp.sys.amiga.advocacy
- newsgroup. If, however, you want to debate Amiga|Mac|PC merits for
- development, then this is the place.
-
- Personally, I'm getting a lot of enjoyment from learning C/C++ on my Amiga.
- I find the level of cooperation and support in the Amiga community to be
- unmatched in terms of friendliness and ease of locating what one needs.
-
- I am confident that my programming knowledge and experience on the Amiga
- will be very portable to other platforms. I'm saving my money for a new
- computer, which will be a PowerPC machine - specific make and OS TBD.
- Meanwhile, I'm using the machine I have, which does much, much more than it
- did when I first bought it, do develop the most important part of the
- system: me.
