Hi from South Africa

[sweetlilmre]

I bet you don't get many saffers here

Anyway, after lusting after an Amiga since I first saw one about 20 years ago (a mate's A500) I finally have:

2x A1200 with Blizzard 1230, 32MB ram, 4Gb CF HD, MiniCD built into the case.

3.1 Roms on one, with OS3.9
3.0 Roms on the other, WB31

I also have 2x samplers, a midi connection, PC-Key connector, several joysticks, many discs etc.

Waiting for my ToastScan, and some other ancillary bits before I am totally up and running.

The beauty of seeing a system boot into a GUI in a couple of seconds, still brings tears to my eyes. Sure beats the cr@p out of Winblowz.

Anyway, just thought I'd say hi, this seems to be a brilliant community and I'm looking forward to many miggy adventures in the future.

Howzit Man,

Howzit back! So you are married to a saffer then, excellent!
Glad you had a good SA experience. Its a wonderful country with problems, sure, but I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

I always joke with UK mates and say "I'd like to come over for summer, but I don't know if I can make the 23 minute and 17 second window!"
