I love the AmigaOS. It's truly the most effective OS to date! I personally have an A4000/030 still running. I ve had A500, A600, A1200 and A4000 =)

You can currently buy motherboards to build your own brand new Amiga with AmigaOS 4.1

Yes there is a Firefox port, runs fine and there's OWB of course.

Pretty much anything you want to do, you can do on an Amiga.

@74erPinguin No. I think there is a Firefox port, but it's old. Amiga is missing most of the software that PCs and Apple consider day-to-day now. FYI, I used to write Amiga software.

[Stroggoth]

My PC boots faster...and the ability to power off like that is just because the Amiga doesn't use lazy-write caches, which improve perf. Amiga is long gone guys.

[74erPinguin]

My heart is filled with melancholy when I see Amiga videos on Youtube.... I regret so much I sold my old Amiga 1200. The AmigaOS is still a great OS. But what about modern stuff like Mozilla Firefox or Skype or Open Office? Is this available to AmigaOS? Is the Amiga One sold somewhere or do you have to build your own Amiga today?

[steveski74]

I'd completely forgotten about the Amiga One.

You've whet my appetite ;).

Ashame I don't have my OpalVision card anymore.
