I would have to say the amiga community, hardware, bestest games (civ, pirates, lotus turbo), funnest interface ever and the early competition with the XT clones. Bring those days back I say. Oh and of course, the SAM 440 (affectionately known as the SAMiga) :)

I'll quote myself from an answer I gave to this question years ago:

The best thing to happen to the Amiga: Commodore
The worst thing to happen to the Amiga: Commodore


This is brilliant! Almost like the Zen of Amiga thought. It says so much more than the 2 statements suggest on their own :)

A3000..... The only stock Amiga you can plug any Monitor into and plenty of upgrade options.


I'll second this.  The 3000 should have been the standard by which all future Amigas were built.  Sigh.  Ah, what should've been.


It was a nice machine... btw, who is the babe in the avatar?

Also a nice avatar! I was wondering what you thought of your 440?

I noticed you had a SAM440ep in your signature. Mental illness is nothing to be ashamed of. :)

How is Chania? My father is from there.
