Ahoi!
Today I'am 30 years old (ya... FML 
), but already registered here a while ago. How that relates? Well, I decided to wish for something I actually wanted when i was way younger, but could not afford: An Amiga 1200 
However, my knowledge of Amiga Soft- and Hardware is basically not existant; Except for games. Lots and lots of games. I think i still know most cheat codes for the games I had for my A500, which is a lot 
That said, I'am primarily here to meet people who also love Commodore machines. I'am sure I can learn a lot and will bathe in nostalgia to keep myself from thinking of how old I just turned :/ (subjective feeling, I'am not saying that anyone else 30+ is old or has to feel old just because i feel that way).
So on friday I shall get my new toy, an Amiga 1200 in great condition with a 4GB IDE-CF Adapter+Card, 030 Turbocard, ADF Transfer Kit and a lot of other things, together with a lot of original games - basically all my favourites from back in the earlier '90s.
I'am sure I'll ask a lot of questions and hope to find answers. Also i want to fix my A500 and C64 and hope for people with more hardware knowledge to help me find the broken parts.
Oh, and my first language is not english, but german, so please correct me if I have wrong spelling or grammer

Take my advice.
Get out while you still can.
Sell your hardware and forget the Amiga ever existed.
It'll bring you nothing but torment.
Please take my advice.
