Hobby, I like to try new hardware, maximize the potential of this what I have (system patches), make my Workbench "beautiful" :), try ScalOS, Magellan come back to Workbench again :).

I'm trying to use the Organizer, write something sometimes...

Around 15 years ago A600 was mine only one computer at home (earlier was Amstarad CPC 128!), I was doing every think I could... write, count, make small graphics/pictures (used for home works, school assignment... etc.)

Unfortunately I was to young    :-D  and I was working A600+TV  :boohoo:  :crazy: , graphic card was... yep, not in range... I bought A1200 but... "no money" - and I could by a Pentium 100Mhz/64Mb + Virge 4Mb, "music card"... etc. (used) in price of Amiga graphic card...

PC with it's IExplorer or Netscape... etc. After this 10 years I/we don't have nice web browser.

So I switched for PC :roll: . This change was easy since I started using a PowerPoint, and Excel not only for school, but for a work...

Today my A1200 become my dream machine... this what I wanted to have 10 years age. Now I know what does it mean Os3.9 running 1440x900 in 32-bit (thx. Elbox for Mediator!).

Yea, I know another "story" of old Amiga user... :roll:
