Well, "real users" is a matter of opinion. To be completely honest, I am
now contemplating buying OS 3.5, not so much for any features but in
order to support the platform. I have heard several OS 3.5 upgrade
stories when it first came out that made me shy away. For all the patches
I currently have on my machine, it is remarkably stable. About the only
thing that intrigues me about it is the new printer.device, as I don't
have TurboPrint or any of the other enhanced printing systems for the
Amiga.

Without any real figures its a shot in the dark. I know, for example, that
many other people like myself have shied away from OS 3.5.

I thought that an Amiga user, by definition, was fanatic :)
