I would never replace Windows with OS4.1. It is just so far behind. The description mentions 'modern web browsers' and 'video players'. It is as if this was written in the late 90s.

Give me VLC player and Firefox/Chrome/Opera over the Amiga equivilent any day.

Obviously if Amiga OS had been competing all these years with Apple/Microsoft then it would be a different story and there would probably be a huge range of powerful freeware apps.

I can see the 'fun' factor behind it but the idea of it still seems utterly pointless to me.
