Title: Amiga OS 3.9 CD (I am Hurting)
Post by: Dmaster on January 31, 2008, 02:06:05 AM

Quick question guys/gals, I purchased an original Amiga OS 3.9 CD about a year ago.  I had made a backup and used that and placed my original away.  Today, my little niece and nephews wer playing in my room and guess what?  (OUCH!) they managed to stomp on some of my original CD and cracked a few including my beloved original OS 3.9.  Anyhow, the question is, can I still legally use my back-up for installing OS 3.9 on my other Miggy that is to arrive in a few days?  The original is completely trashed
:(  Thanks.

 100% legal to use in one Amiga. Keep the broken CD as proof of purchase.

Will do, but it's completely shattered.  Yes I know about one Amiga, I am just replacing the one I have which is in a tower and too darn heavy.  Thanks.  Wow, it still hurts  :)

get a big sticky sheet of paper or plastic and assemble the broken original on it... just for fun. :-D

Why was the CD on your floor... or... why were there kids dancing on your shelves?

I had it on a shelf nicely put away, I have no idea how in the world they got access to it.  :)  Glad I made the back-up though.  Will keep the shattered original though.  :)  Kids.  They are between 6 and 12 years old.  I got upset, but heck, I once was a kid myself.  Leason learned (Be more protective of originals)  :)
