Title: Hello from France
Post by: Domi73 on August 27, 2007, 07:06:40 PM: Hello everyone :-)
Just want to introduce myself. I had an Amiga 500 many years ago, before I had a C64.
Then time goes, and I gave the Amiga to someone in my familly. Now, I want to go back and have fun with the Amiga, so I found an Amiga 3000 in pretty good shape.
I have many reading to remember the good old days :-D

Welcome back! Looks like you got a sweet deal. Thats a very clean looking Amiga that looks like it was carefully stored away. Hope the battery didn't destroy the motherboard. Was there anything special installed inside?

Post by: Domi73 on August 31, 2007, 08:41:22 AM: Fester, you're French is really perfect, congratulation :-)

Right now, I don't have a lot of software to have fun, I just bought "DSS", but I didn't kept any software from the past.

Too bad, I had DPIV and Volume 4D Junior, interesting software.
From the hardware point, I don't have expansion card.
See pic:

Beside, I didn't get the manuals with the 3000.
Maybe in the future, i'll be able to get more stuff.

Post by: Fester on August 31, 2007, 07:44:46 PM: Wow!

Elle est vraiment propre ta machine.

That's a really clean Amiga you got there. I have four 2000s in various upgrades and condition but they're not nearly that sparkling.

Thanks for the compliment on my French. I actually grew up in a 95% French-speaking community. My mom is Brayon and my dad is Acadian. So I did all my schooling and college in French. I should try to keep it up.

Festeur :-)
