I bought my first A500 in 1989. I was a U.S. Army private stationed in Wildflecken,Germany.
I wanted to replace the C-64 I left behind when I
joined, and that massive $600 a month was burning a hole in my pocket.
i decided on the Amiga- it was 2 more months before I could afford the 1084 to use it. I borrowed
a Tandy 1000 CGA monitor and made it work in 16
color mode with aligator clips and straight pins.
Ahh the memories of all the alcohol consumed while
playing Police Quest or writing awful programs in
AmigaBasic.
