agreed on the commodore thing... :lol:

but i think the best thing was that the machines, particularly the early ones, were designed and built with true heart and soul of the guys involved. the kinda "we are going to change the world" sort of feeling. and it was a privilage to have been on the edge of that, even just as a user.

A500, A600, A1200x3, A2000, A3000, A4000 & a CD32.
and probably just like the rest of you, crates full of related "treasure" for the above XD

yeah, i'll go with a the A500. its what i started with, its what my mates started with, and its want got commodore going in the public eye, and as much as it shames me to admit, i was part of the school playground diskswapping scene.
you could argue that an amiga, and bootable x-copy floppy was all you needed for gaming greatness. i went for an external floppy drive before the one meg ram upgrade.
my birthdays and christmases were easy for my parents and family. they'd just buy boxes of blank floppy disks.
my god those were the days.
being able to tell read/write errors by the noise of the drive. sorry, getting all nostagic. ... kids these days... don't know their friggin born!  :lol:
