 As I understand it the Amiga software industry is in a
bit of a crisis at
the moment because 3.5" DD floppies are no longer being made.  Well,
they're also in a bit of a crisis thanks to the idiots running Amiga, Inc.
killing the market last spring when it will be quite a while before the new
Amiga is ready to ship. 
You're right about the disk crisis. Amiga magazines are falling over
themselves to get a decent supply of DD disks. As for Amiga Inc killing the
market, quite probably but from what I have heard the new OS is closer to
release than everyone thinks (whatever that means) and as soon as I have
enough money I'll buy a Viper PPC with a G3 processor. The Amiga dead?
hardly?
