Yet another Hi and welcome from Sydney!!

No, not actually live here, on a short term assignment for my employer. Back to Stockholm in April.

While am at it, any must-go-to amiga places here in Sydney?

Does it always rain like this in Sydney?

Cheers!

Nah, there aren't really any must-go-to Amiga places here in Sydney that I know of.  Commodore Australia was over at Lane Cove (Mars Road), but they're long gone now.

The weather is always a bit crazy here, yes.  Hot one minute, raining the next  :-D  We always get a fair bit of rain in early January/February, but then we don't get a whole lot for most of the year.

Make sure to do all the tourist-y things like go up in Centrepoint or walk the Harbour Bridge!  :-)

Hi, just got an A1200 from eBay, haven't got it yet as such. First time Amiga user, never touched one before. One of my friends is a huge Amiga/Commodore fanatic, has one of nearly each model. He's going to help me with software and other things with it.

Can't wait to play around with the old thing and see what it does  :-)


G'day from yet another Sydneysider.

There is still an active Amiga group which meets once a month (or so) if you are interested:

Next meeting is next Saturday afternoon I think ?

Cheers,

Welcome, for yet another aussie amiga user (this time from Ballarat(just outside of Melbourne)).  Seems there's quite a few of us still tinkering with Amigas here in aus. :)
Near as I can tell this is where I write something under the guise of being innocuous, but really its a pot shot at another persons/peoples choice of Amiga based systems. Unfortunately only I cant see how transparent and petty it makes me look.
