I did for several years, but when my 30GB drive died, and the replacement
showed me that my carefully made by Diavolo-pro backups contained none of the
stuff it would have taken to restore operation because amigados does not
allow access to a file that is open by the os, that was just too much of the
wheel to re-invent. So my A2k, with a PP&S 040 board, 64 megs of ram, a
picasso-II video, and numerous (all slots were full) other accessories got
carried to the basement where it still sits on the floor behind the coco3's
desk. And I went on to linux. As a broadcast engineer, I'd had my fill of
windows and its bugs and restrictions, so putting it on my home machine never
entered my mind. But my coco3/6309 still runs.
