Ah, so I should just bin all these programs that are perfectly good and buy
a load of new ones then? The software I have does what I want and I am not
ditching it. I want to migrate to a new machine and replace bits of
software one by one when there is a better version for the new machine that
I can afford. I thought all the people who thought like you had already
ditched their amigas and gone over to peecees.
If the machine is completely different from the current Amigas and doesn't
run any current software then how can it be called an Amiga? But Gary has
said that some sort of emulation is being worked on so this discussion is
pointless, just had to get one last post in.
