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?

@Ancalimon

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

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.

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.

No problemo for you!

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?
