How old are you?

[steve30]

I was just wondering what the age range of amiga users is.

I'm 15.

How old are you?

[steve30]

So far (excluding amigapete's age):

Total: 414 Years
Average: 29.6 Years
Range: 35
Median: 27.5

That's also excluding rustednail, jkirk, and lando, as they posted their ages while I was working out the figures.

I take it I'm one of the youngest Amiga lovers then.

Long topic. 5 pages in under on day!

Anyway, here's my collection of computers:

1997: A500+ with 1meg expansion card (A500+ now doesn't work)

1999: Dell 500MHz PIII (still my main computer)

2004: Old Compaq laptop (now kinda broken)

Feb 2005: Amiga 500+ with 512k expansion (also has stopped working now, so I'm A500less)

Oct 2005: Dell 400MHz Celeron, bought as spare computer or to use as a server, and is currently my main machine until I get the other dell fixed

Jan 2006: Commodore A1200 with Blizzard 1230. I want a new case and keyboard as half the screws are missing and it has a german keyboard. It now has an HD in and is really nice to use.

Dating an 18 year old? Really?

BTW, I wouldn't mind one of those A4 laptops.

I used amiga's since I was very young (probably 1995/1996).

The person who moved in next door worked at a school that used amigas and I got to borrow one during the holidays. At my school we had Macs and BBCs (my current comprehensive school still uses BBCs in the science department).

I then bought an amiga from the school in 1997.

So I have had an amiga for quite a loing time.

I've also used my Amiga for coursework. I used the A500+.

But unfortunately, my biology coursework that I did on it was crap and needs major improvements, but BOTH my A500+s died.

Looks like I might have to type it out again, unless the PC can read amiga formatted SCSI Hard disks.

I don;t think there is an upto date average. I will arrange one later though.

I finally reached 16 the other day (5th Jan)!
