Sick? No! Mad? Probably! :-)

Personally, I held off getting a home PC until 1996 (even though I was using them at work prior to that) and my A1200 did what I needed (as did my A500 prior to that).

However, the advent of Win95, the Internet, cheap (and supported!) hardware plus great 3D first-person games like Duke Nukem finally got the better of me!

But I kept my A1200 and it's sitting here next to my PCs now, all plugged in and ready to go - and still gets some use now and again.
