The last thing I did on my A1200 was use DiskSalv to recover my data/school projects and PC2AMIGA to move them to my new PC :(

The videoDAC became faulty and my beloved A1200 lost it's "RED" colour element, soon after the hard disk started to die. Our local'ish Amiga guys (Zoggy's computers, Unitech) moved on too, so there was no hope of repair.

Most painful transition ever, man. I always had the best looking projects in highschool, PageStream and WordWorth gave you laser printer quality from a 9-pin dot-matrix printer. DPaint gave you awesome animations and gradients, VistaPro gave you sweet backgrounds to use in geography projects, ProTracker for the background tunes. I used my Neriki genlock (still got it!) to overlay onto video for presentations

I f***ing hate you, C=/Amiga. You ruined my life. I went from being ahead of the curve and "special" for using an alternate platform that was way ahead of it's time, to being a 'sheep' in the PC realm.
