What is the meaning of AMIGA..?

[Hodgkinson]

Amiga...
Some odd looking keyboard ...(A1200)... that I was given a few years ago ...(Perhaps '05)... , before finding out that it was a lot more than just a source of 25-pin D connectors ;-)

Even being brought up with PC's (I’m 17), I agree that Amigas, or more accurately the OS, is by far the most slickest and efficient OS that I have ever seen (Although it does miss the home comforts such as built in networking, decent image editor/music player built in, etc ... Mind you the ticker tape on the calc is quite nice...)

Amiga strikes me as something that I missed out on without ever knowing it existed.

Just to reply...
Taking into account both my and my Dads PC's...Approximate chronological order...

C= PET
Aquired a 4040 development kit at some point
C64 +4's (Atomic mission, blitz, etc)
200Mhz MMX (Dads first home PC)
233Mhz tower of my own
Dad and me got a DELL 400Mhz laptop each
Given a A1200 and TI99-4A at some point
233Mhz tower upgraded to 1Ghz tower...200Mhz MMX upgraded to a 1.8Ghz tower. Masses of other PC's given to us from 133Mhz to 1Ghz at various points.
Given a ZX Spectum +3, 2x ZX Specckys, a good A500, a faulty A500, another A1200, a A1200T (Now raided for parts to use in the original A1200...special reasons for this...), and a A1200 motherboard.

Btw, All the computers, execpt the PET and the 200Mhz MMX are second hand. The majority were given to us free of charge.

...So really the Amigas are the "new" computers in this house!
