Hi Grunge
 
Welcome to the nuthouse... :)
 
I've noticed on google analytics that only 5 folk from Russia visit my CommodoreScotland.com site, so there at least 5 Amiga users in your part of the world still active... :)

I think that number of active russian Amigans is bigger. But Amiga was never very popular in ex-USSR. Best days was 1994-2000. Most of russian Amigans - ex-ZX-Spectrum users (as i am too).
 
Today there still working russian Amiga IRC and one Amiga news site.
 
I don't know anyone from my old Amiga friends who use it nowdays as main computer. But i know 2 guys in Sevastopol who have working a1260's.
 
I also know guy with Pegasos here, but he use mainly powermac with morph os.

The odd thing is the 5 folk from Russia when they visit my site only seem to go and watch the Compare The Meerkat TV commercials on it... :)

Reckon they must like Aleksandr Orlov's rusky accent better than Amigas... :D

Hello Grunge and welcome!
 
If you still have your old Amiga hardware you may be able to get it repaired. Amigakit is one option but there are probably many more who you can send it to to get fixed up and running again.
 
I am using my Amiga 1200 but I also run Amiga emulated on my PC.
 
Have you looked into AROS as a possibility?

Thank you, but i don't want reanimation of my old hardware. Its old and not cheap. But i want new Amiga computer (i think there are many people around the world who wants one, but why we don't have new hardware :-)
 
Truly speaking, because of job, i haven't time to fix my old hardware and system. I need new Amiga with turn on and play, as in good old times.
 
I don't know why Natami team don't think about netbook or laptop design :)
