Opinion piece from Stuff.tv

Quoted from the site.

"20 years since I last used an Amiga 500, the thing I still think about most is balls. Bouncing balls.

Your mate would turn up at your house after tea with a blue diskette in his blazer pocket. The label would be torn off and the legend “DEMO” scrawled across it. You’d slot the disk in and boot up. Moments (OK, several minutes) later, a cacophony of crunchy, 16-bit rave would be blasting from your speakers and, on screen, a chrome ball would be floating over a checkered board."
