Stop whinning and get an MAC+ then! If you can't see the advantages of the
Amiga over the MAC+ then you dont know what you are talking about.

Sorry but I'm getting tired of seeing people whinning, bitching and critizing 
the Amiga, its a GREAT machine although it isn't perfect, I'm perfectly happy 
with it.

And a side note, why do you think Commodore has abandoned you? They came out
with the 500, 1000 and 2000 that are still 100% software compatiable with
each other except for a few current incompatiablities in the hardware add ons
between the three machines but will be eliminated in the very near future (if
there are any that hasn't been done yet).
