How is begun your adventure with Amiga?

[Zorro]

I asked myself... how all begun for you ?

I had read of Amiga on the reviews of the gold age and had that cousin of a friend... :-)

He had the always mythical A1000... and we fall in love.

Then that friend bought an A500 when mother Commodore decided to let it out and I planted definitively a camping stretch to his house... ;-)

First thing that I have seen on his Amiga was Deluxe Paint... then it passed to the games: Marble Madness from Electronic Arts and Xenon from Bitmap Brothers... I did not resumed me for a looong time...

My world was not more the same one, at least until when I did succeed to take an Amiga 500.

Then it was the time of Kick Off... and the number of friends increased to excess...

I stop here otherwise I can bother you with all the history of my wonderful experience with Amiga...

(from Mexico? )

No... from Amiga classic slot  :-)

... and from Italy.


 

What's your story after your Amiga500?

After the A500,
i owned A500+, A1200+Blizzard 1220 and then an A4000...

Now i have an A600 and an A500 in my house for nostalgical immersion and I will have an AmigaOne with OS4, I think... or a Peggy/Mos, at least.

I remember waiting in my front yard in 1987, looking down the street for that brown UPS truck to pull up and deliver my brand spanking new Amiga 500. I had received a small sum of money from my uncle, and I had a choice of taking a trip to Europe with one of my High School classes or buying the Amiga. I choose the Amiga...

Great choice... :-D

My experience with the Amiga started when Commodore bought Amiga Corp, and I was shipped out to Los Gatos to work on the operating system.

Seems like that was a long, long time ago :-)
