Anyway, I'll stop posting on every thread as soon as my bar changes from "Beginner" to the more accurate "Hobbyist"

Naw... Technoid is the one you want to be at.  ;-)  I was there for quite a while, but now I've gone over and became a "Defender of the Faith."  Not terribly appropriate for me.  

Anyhow, I do think a lot of people are just looking for nostalgia and retro items, which brings them here.  Let's face it -- The Amiga was the coolest computer of the late 80's/early 90's.  :-)

Yeah, I've done that too. I'll buy stuff on a whim now becuse I wanted it sooo bad when I was younger and broke-er.


Plus the prices on some stuff is so low compared to when it was new.  Amiga is really the exception in how it keeps its value.  I have a perfectly mint SGI Octane R10k SSE with 1GB RAM and a 36GB SCSI drive.  I spent about $400 on the whole rig.  How could I resist?  That was like $30,000 back in 1997.  :lol:
