Aw hell, just take in an Amiga formatted double density floppy disk and see
if their computers can read it!
I doubt it! When it can't, ask them how a PC can suffer from an Amiga virus
if the Microsoft Super Duper all singing all dancing state of the art
computer cant read a simple floppy disk! Then point out that your silly
virus infected 'games machine' can read PC and Amiga formatted disks and
still works.......virus and all!
