Would You Sell/Swap Your PC for an Amiga - Page 3

AmigaFriend · 03 March 2009, 21:08

No. My PC is my main source income. But would trade my old Athlon XP 2400 for a A4000 PPC board.

Amiga1992 · 03 March 2009, 21:29

I would.
It's a Pentium 3 @ 800!

That's what you get if you ask PC instead of "your main computer" (in my case a Mac :P)

I would swap my 2.3GHz Celeron for Amiga 3000 IMMEDIATELLY!

Claw22000 · 04 March 2009, 09:27

I said yes and I have 9 PC's and only 1 Amiga

humble worm · 04 March 2009, 09:35

If I had one old spare PC then I would love to swap it for A1200... but since I don't - NO WAY (for the reasons mentioned above)

Depends on your definition of an Amiga. If you mean "a PPC mainboard with a G4 CPU capable of running Amiga OS 4.1" I'd sell my crappy PC in an instant. If you mean a very upgraded (with at least a PPC card) A4000 or tower-ized A1200, I'd also consider it. Otherwise, no way.

I'd swap all my Amiga's for Miss Polski IMMEDIATELY!

Depends. My old PIII for an A1200 with an accelerator is of course a no-brainer, but a brand new peecee, no way, it's not like A1200s are hard to find.

My Amiga and my modern PC (a Mac actually) meet different needs and I couldn't fathom having to do without one or the other.

For a towered 060 Amiga with a Cybervision card, yeah i would

, but if it was a PC that i had only just bought 6 months earlier and spent $1000 on then i would have to say no! .. if the PC was about 3 years old then i would say yes, but i wouldn't say yes if it was just a stock A1200, it would need a few AWESOME extra bits
