Hello amiga.org!
« on: June 02, 2005, 07:14:12 PM »
Hi folks!

I have been lurking for a few days now and decided that now I should introduce myself...

I have been with commodore since the 80's, when I became the proud owner of a brand new top of the range commodore 64 computer. A number of years later I recieved an A1200 for christmas. I still have that A1200 - well - my parents do. I should really dig it out some time.

I am now regretting ebaying the 68030 expansion and 8MB RAM that I had in there... And the 120MB hard disk that I just couldn't fill.

I was heavily into the comms scene - A regular user of the Amiga Junction 9 BBS on my old 2400 baud modem and an avid lover of fidonet. I still miss Mail Manager! It was the first bit of software I actually saved up for and bought myself! :)

Regrettably, I switched to the PC in 2000 - a clapped out old SX/33. Far slower than the amiga - who knows what I was thinking. Since then I have been with windows and linux. I still miss the amiga workbench though. I learnt to code on that using the Dice compiler. ahhh intuition.library. I remember it well. :D
