AmigaI have been an Amigan for many years. I bought my first Amiga, an A500, in 1990. I went on to own an A1500 then an A1200. I wanted to get an Amiga One but it was not possible to buy one so I got a Pegasos. I have never owned an x86 based computer or a computer that could run Windows. I no longer own a classic Amiga; I had to sell my A1200 when I moved to Japan. However, I assisted Detlef Würkner with localising AmigaOS4 for Thai and supplied Joerg van de Loo with code so he could support Thai in BareEd. PegasosMy Pegasos 2, purchased from Vesalia, features a PowerPC G4 processor running at 1 GHz, 512 MB RAM, DVD and 160 MB hard drive. I use a Logitech Thai keyboard and optical mouse. I dual boot into 2 operating systems. MorphOSIn MorphOS I can run almost all of my old Amiga software. My email client is YAM and I run Sputnik (KHTML based) or AWeb for web browsing. amrss is the best newsfeed reader I have used on any platform. Ambient, the desktop/window manager in MorphOS, is under active development by an open source team and is constantly being improved. 
OpenSUSEOpenSUSE is a very user friendly distribution. I mount my Amiga FFS partitions from MorphOS using the AFFS module, which I have found to be reliable up to now. I use SUSE when I want to code using QT or run AROS. Some things I want to set up for Linux PPC environment:
