Like Jay Miner said,"computers will be our undoing".

I voted AMiga btw, but I do dabble a bit, especially when it comes to anything BeOS (Haiku) and Atari 8-bit related.

I can see the benefits of computers in most industries and applications, at the moment I can also see the benefits in triple distilled vodka.

Amiga's *and* Console's, but that was not an option. I chose Console's because I have more of them (greater diversity) and spend more time on 'em than my Amiga's.

I enjoy "other brand" computers. I use PCs and Macs because I have to, not because I enjoy them.

I only enjoy Amigas, and don't mind or care about being branded a zealot or fanatic or anything else for that matter by certain others here...

(only other thing as good as a miggy is the SNES...)

I enjoy computers in general. I love reading about a machine I never owned. Lately been on a kick reading about the Speccy and Atari ST, as I never even saw these around.

My passion, such as it is, is amiga and linux

Computers are interesting as hell, no matter the "brand", old or new.

I put "I enjoy computers" but it's more of a mix.. I enjoy computers AND consoles, but computers a bit more (hence my vote)

I said "I enjoy computers" as I really do enjoy almost all of them. Using the Apple IIc most recently.
But, I prefer Amigas. :-)

I enjoy computers, because my C64 is not an Amiga
Besides, my PC is getting more attention and I also enjoy my MSX, yeah they are both Microsoft

Hi,

I usually use my Amiga for important stuff, find windows to shaky but use a windows machine for playing games. I have started using Linux for my important stuff just to see how long it will go without a crash. So far three and 1/2 years.
