The Amiga isn't anywhere near as easy to use as we claim. Almost all
Amiga users have been on the platform for years and know it by heart.
A beginner with only Windows experience will find it quite difficult.
There are some strange features. For example, opening a window under
"View by Name" can use up all your memory. And the User-startup is
obscure.
