Ok, let's add my 'story'...
I had my first computer (the mandatory C64) when I was 13, back in about '84 and payed for it with the money earned in a summer's hard work. Lots of fun and slowly expanding it over the years, I became aware of the Amiga. First the A1000 (which was wáy out of my league), and then the A500/A2000.
Wow! That was it! I _had_ to have an A500! After finding enough money I bought an A500 with A1084 in 1988. Within one or two months I also bought an A501 and an A1010, as the A500 was not really usable without them. I kept on expanding my A500 with a 24 pin matrix printer, an 80 MB harddrive (MacroSystem Evolution), 2 MB fastram and a KCS Power PC Board. A pretty hefty setup back in the days, but I found myself using the MS-DOS side (Power PC Board!) most of the time. After I got out of the army I looked at my bankaccount (which had quite a nice amount of money on it, thanks to the Dutch Army!) and bought a hideously expensive 486DX2/66 with 8 MB ram and a 245 MB harddrive in 1993. The A500 went out, like the C64 a few years before that.
That was the last time I only had one computer. Since then, I started to build up a respectable amount of computers, most of them setup in my dedicated computerroom. Apart from my Windowscomputers, I have several Commodore 8 bits machines and two Amigas (A1200 & A3000), all of them ready to run. I tend to (slowly) expand these classics as much as I can, taking them to where I would never even have thought about back in the days when either my C64 or my A500 were my maincomputers.
