1997. For some reason, I'd just always wanted an Amiga. The first thing I remember seeing on an Amiga was Zool 2 running on an A500. The game looked really good, and there was just something exotic about Amigas. I swapped my SuperNES for that same one, which a small part of my mind regrets (I had a lot of sweet games for the SNES) but in the end it was my introduction to this world... I eventually gave the A500 away, when I got my A1200.

It's astonishing how ill-informed some professors can be... :-?

Hehehe, I remember that skull/scream thingy.......it was scary  even when you know what it did ;-).


The Hitchcock effect! You knew it was going to happen, but you never knew exactly when, and the tension was off the meter! Seventeen years old, and I was cowering behind the bed with my friend, neither of us dared go near the bloody thing.

Whoever coded that was a sadist. :-D

@J-Golden
I have it somewhere, I'll see if I can dig it out.
