For what it's worth, here's my two pence worth.
I bought my EZ/PC tower last year because my CD 32/SX 32 Pro 50 had reached
the end of it's life, no more upgrades available! My new A1200/060/66 with
huge hard drive and tons of fast ram falls over quite frequently! I'm sick
to death of clicking the left mouse button to reboot! The Siamese RTG has
never worked and still doesn't. I can read the PC's files from my Amiga but
what use is that? Picture files are best viewed by using the PC to access
the Amiga's hard drive!
I've bought and paid for O/S 3.5 and 3.9 and can see only minor graphical
improvements!
I can't wait for the new Amiga to be launched and really hope that it does
well but I wont be buying one simply because I just can't find a use for the
one I have now! I've tweaked my workbench to look nice but it's like a work
of art, looks nice but doesn't do much!
It's been a long time and I've waited patiently but I've parted with the
cash already and can't afford to do it again unless the new Amiga can
completely replace both sides of my hybrid tower! The new Amiga has to be
both affordable and better than what I've got now in all cases! It's too
late in my learning curve to start afresh with a new computer that I still
know nothing about.
I wish Amiga well and hope beyond all dreams that Microsoft choke and die on
their crappy O/S but I wont be in the front line of the fight because I
can't afford the new weapons and have no idea what they look like, never
mind how they work!
I'm not moaning, just being realistic.
