Frankly Peter, I don't see it.  the software power isn't there.  When I found
Photoshop on the Mac, I realized that it was possible to produce a program so
well designed and tested and powerful, unlike most of the stuff made for Amiga. 
There was good imaginative programming, but the user base was too small to
perfect most of it and make a profit.  So much of the software was full of
holes.

I migrated to the Mac from Amiga via Fusion, a perfect Mac emulator.  There
wasn't a good enough audio program on Amiga so I bought a cheap SuperMac on Ebay
to use almost as an audio peripheral to the Amiga.  It was a smooth way to
transition.

YAM is right.  There is a shareware CD burning program for Amiga too, that is
still supported, I think.  I even burned audio cds and it was great for backup. 
A couple of CDs were enough to preserve years of Amiga production.  

For a while, I actually was able to mount Mac disks from the SuperMac on the
Amiga through Appletalk and Fusion...I have  a Fusion zorro board that has
serial ports.  Slow but useful.

Well, this is a Mac list so we should stop with this Amiga talk or go on off
list.

Fun though, isn't it.
