| We were mostly children when we met Amiga. We are getting old... So what happens to Amiga when it's over for most of us? |

well my kids (9 & 6) favourite games are Quod Init Exit linky for the mighty C64 and Deluxe Galaga for our miggies so they are already infatuated with the machines I fell in love with when I was a youngster

| @klx300r Exactly. Also there is chance that new products bring new customers. Few but it happens from time to time.

Yeah, like an ancient Pharaoh
But I'm costantly brainwashing my 9 year old kid to use my Amiga's. Just in case.

| I'm 22 and been using AmigaOS4 on my AmigaOne 500 for almost a year now. It's my first Amiga ever. So I'm one of the 'youngsters' you were talking about
I'll be supporting Amiga in any way that I can (software and hardware-wise) until the day that I die and my future children will also get an AmigaOne. _________________ Proud user of AmigaOS 4.1 on an AmigaONE 500. This is the first Amiga I've ever had so I don't know all the ins and outs of AmigaOS yet, so I'm sorry if I'm asking noob questions and stuff. |

That was one of the reasons behind my Amiga restoration project, to get my daughter (she's 8, and also interested in science, math, computers) interested in Amigas.
Need to create a new generation to carry the torch. |

Why you care?
You will be dead then.

I only turned 30 a couple of years back, hopefully I've still got a few years left in me yet, hopefully (although it sounds awful) even outlive my Amigas :O
But after I'm dead, well, I'll be dead - so I won't care.

What if you reincarnate into a world without any Amigas? |
