I only had a A500 for all of the 'Golden Years' of the Amiga but about 2yrs ago found a A4000 for sale in the local classifieds.... Thus the journey began.
Things really ramped up when I got in touch with a video editing shop where the owner was retiring and picked up a loot for next to nothing.
Let's not even start about the Commodore 8-bit stuff.... playing with the SX-64 right now.
