In 1987, I got a C=64 for my birthday present :-D. :roll: Then I sold it(regretfully :-( , and missed it too)in 1994 and got me an A600 from a friend dear to me. Used it for 2 days. and ask if I could replace it with an A500+. I still have my A500 with me. After a year bought an external drive from a friend and still alive and kicking, although at times I need to press the IC in its socket to boot, gets loose at times. BTW: when I returned the A600, the owner(with Jay Miner now in Amiga Heaven :angel:) told me to keep the ROM 2! WOW! :-o To my surprise it worked on the A500. and the A600, well he slipped in a ROM 1.3. It worked too. :-o Though the enhancements(PCMCIA&HDD) never work but it boots fine on a floppy and is able to play old games he owns. He used to own a retal shop full of PC, but he kept an A1200 under a desk. I worked there for the whole summer vacation to pay for the A500 and some mags. He made me drool like hell when he showed me his brand new and smells new A1200. He told me I should read mags on Amiga stuff. I was introduced to AMIGA WORLD:angel:, bought a few issues, but subscribed to AMAZING Computing/Amazing Amiga :angel: Hope I don't made you all cry but that's life. or after life :angel:
Good day to all Amigans!! :-D
