New In 2005, the Amiga will be 20 years old!
I recently had a dream about that. The Amiga celebrated its 20th birthday and they came out with that Super Amiga finally with AmigaOS 4.0, G4 PowerPC chip, and the Amiga 500 chipset emulation on one chip.

BTW Class of 2005 never heard of the Amiga, unless they are running it via an emulator like UAE?

New If you have dreams with Amigas in them
..it may be too late for Electro-shock (is that the super-Deluxe model of Electrolux ?)

Buy a cornet. Learn the scales. This employs a different kind of brain we have; one often underdeveloped, especially.. lately. When you can play, Sounds from the Hudson or Carnival of Venice - you'll be Cured!

New My dreams have a lot of things in them
The Amiga, or Super Amiga, is but one of many things that I dream about. Is this normal? I dreamt up a whole new GUI interface, new design, Amiga 500 system on a single chip for backwards compatability, Virtual Machines to run older AmigaDOS environments, and a Virtual Machine to run the MS-OS and other PC systems within. Also they had incorporated the XFree86 interface into the new AmigaOS and had a port of Mozila for the browser. It put Linux and MacOSX to shame as far a benchmarks went.

But yes, I do dream of better Amiga systems. Is this normal? I guess not?

Electro-shock, it was tried on my grandfather, didn't work. IIRC it made him more depressed than he had been before? Only one cure that I know of for depression (with the exception of God curing me), but to do it would kill me. The only other hope is to wait for Jesus to come back, and have him cure me. But what are the chances of that happening in my lifetime?
