Re: How to live with Amiga addiction?

I know the thing :laughing:
I just picked up intrest in the beginning of 2010, had 2 Amiga 500's, googled a bit found this site, Amibay, Amigascene.nl and lots of others, started reading on WHDLoad.
 
:hammer:
WHDLoad ha ? Ok requiers an Amiga 1200, no problem, marketplace, search, ok found one locally.
Needs a Blizzard 1230, search, found on Ebay.
 
Hmm, I like a second Amiga 1200 for my father so he can play Frontier.
Mad_cat provides me an A1200 with Mtec @ 28Mhz and 8MB.
My first contact with CF drive.
 
I want more, searching for A2000/3000/4000, bought an A4000, a month later an A4000 Micronik, a month later an A4000 almost for free.
Also various A2000's.
Score on an GVP A530.
Getting a few A500/600's.
Big fat score on a local sale with various CD32's and a SX32MKII, keyboards and again 2 A2000's.
Score on an Amiga 1000 with DKB insider, so 2MB memory in total.
Another few A2000's even with GVP Combo.
 
The holy grail, Cyberstorm 060/PPC 50/200 with 128MB and already had a Vision card.
Took McVenco's A2500 recently, nice little machine which has the GVP Combo 030.
 
And most recent, 3 A500's, one plus and one rev 8A, not plus, but can be upgraded and a 6A and best of all BSC/Alfadata Alfapower IDE for A500.
 
I'd like to stop, but I think I can't untill I have an A3000D and T and A4000T and CDTV :roflmao:
But I'm already getting room shortage yeah and it costs a fortune and I'm not the biggest collector here, there are people with far more machines and lots more exotic things.

Heh. I don't have a problem with hoarding multiples of the same kind of machines, but when it comes to different architectures...well, I've got an Amiga, a Mac, a 286 PC, a Tandy, an MSX, and that's not even counting the half-dozen game consoles I own...
 
And I'm gleefully unapologetic about it! ;)

Consoles haven't hit me yet, but PS3 with GT5 is really getting a serious thought and Xbox with Forza, hmm :roflmao:.
 
My PC isn't a little one too, I just waited for the new Radeon 6000 series and the only thing I have to do is get a top end card of the 6000 series and my PC will be up to the task for even the most demanding games.
It's a Core I7 975 with 6GB.
 
I hope I win the new year lottery :laughing:
