Amiga...
Some odd looking keyboard ...(A1200)... that I was given a few years ago ...(Perhaps '05)... , before finding out that it was a lot more than just a source of 25-pin D connectors ;-)
Even being brought up with PC's (I’m 17), I agree that Amigas, or more accurately the OS, is by far the most slickest and efficient OS that I have ever seen (Although it does miss the home comforts such as built in networking, decent image editor/music player built in, etc ... Mind you the ticker tape on the calc is quite nice...)
Amiga strikes me as something that I missed out on without ever knowing it existed.

Out of curiosity, whats the chronological order of the machines you have moved from?
For me it was:
Vic 20-> c64-> Amiga 1000-> 386DX/25-> 133MHz Pentium-> 300MHz p2-> 1GHz athlon-> 2GHz Celeron-> 3Ghz p4
and thats from '85 to present. I'm curious because moving from the machines between the vic-20 and the 133MHz pentium was lots of fun and really exciting. THe programs I wrote would run way faster on each new machine, more colors, better resolutions, etc. BUt after the 300MHz p2, stuff just got evolutional progress and hasn't been all that exciting since.
