Responding to the following:

"Oh, Amiga DOES NOT need a lot of desktop space compared to Mac, as we have
screens, which a lot of Mac users still not quite understand..."

Give me a break. On my dinky 9" screen (Mac SE) I have a Virtual 2-page
display. The screen scrolls automatically according to the active window,
WP cursor position, or mouse cursor. I can tell it to take a section of it
and enlarge it 3x, take another part of the virtual screen and reduce it to
75%. And despite this, I can STILL use what I see (press button, switch
windows, etc) normally.
