Howdy
I joined a few days ago and in a big hurry to solve a A3000 floppy problem. As a result I completely missed this intro area. I have been an Amiga user since 1991, when I brought an A1000 secondhand after seeing a mate of mine with an A500 playing Cinemaware's Wings. After that I had to have one. I traded the A1000 for an A500, because it was easier and cheaper to expand. I hacked the A500 up to a full ECS chipset with 2MB Chip Ram and 6MB Fast, with Kickstart changer and built a SCSI interface for it in order to get a HDD on it cheap.
Since then I have purchased a CD32-SX1 and an A1200. The 1200 has a Blizzard MKIV 68030/50 and SCSI int. with 64MB Ram. I have also been given over previous years, another A500, which I had to use to repair mine, 2xA2000's an A600 and the insides of an A3000. The A3000 I am building in to a tower ATM and is the whole reason I found his thriving little Amiga community which looks like loads of fun to hang out in.
I have been a little lazy on the Amiga's over the last few years because I did a programing course and had to battle with Windows. I now teach Networking/Hardware related subjects at the very college I did my Diploma at, so windows crap rules my life currently as the subjects I teach are kinda low level and Linux is to difficult for the likes of my students (and I'm not real well versed on it myself hope to change that soon).
Should see me around plenty...
later all..
