Do you regret ever getting rid of your Amiga?
« on: May 01, 2018, 02:27:48 PM »
Looking back over the years I think back and the biggest regret I have was selling a Cyberstorm 060 PPC the PPC did not work for some reason but the 060 was fine.

I also regret throwing out (yes you read correctly) an Amiga 3000T in 1997. it did not work but knowing what I know now it was likely just a bad 3640 card. "Hit head against brick wall"

What regrets do you have regarding getting rid of Amiga items?

The A4000T I am listing on eBay right now?... :)


the money you get now will be nice but your likely going to want the 4000T back at some point.

You were excited by the launch of Windows 95!!! I mean if you were used to Windows 3.1 then fair enough but you knew about the Amiga. I mean I don't remember PeeCees being at all useable until Windows 98 at least and they were still very ropey until XP IMHO.


I Agree, Widows XP was barely better than my Amiga 4000. Windows still had not done a very good job with multitasking and sucked in the sound department and there were no real options for 3D rendering unitil XP came out.
