Welcome...

I hate you..

And I mean that in the nicest way.. :-)

I paid a "bit" more for my A1000 and you're looks cosmetically much nicer!!!

Congrats!!!

I remember 17... I think..  Good times..
When I'd sit around playing games and writing code and drinking too much soda and..
hmm..  er...

Not much has changed actually...  ;-)

If you have any questions, just ask..  Lots of great help around here...

All I can say, retro-computers are a much nicer hobby than the soul draining Facebook/Myspace/Twitter routes.

YES!!!  I can't believe how popular those are....
Funny I'm finally happy about not being very social! :-)

@RepoOne, I'd make sure you get some floppies and make some backups.
I got several copies of kickstart (same version) with my A1000, but only one of them was still any good (disk errors).  So I copied it right away!!
If you have an Amiga with Workbench (and kickstart if it's an A1000), a null modem cable and a PC with a serial port, you can always get other disks to it.
But you need those (Workbench/Kickstart) and you can't "create" them with a PC floppy.
(OK, if you have a Catweasel, but that's cheating.. ;-)

p.s.  @Amiduffer, hey you live in my old neighborhood!!  L.A.!! Man, I miss Tommy's chiliburgers and  ..  er  .. um  .. uh...
