My experience with the Amiga started when Commodore bought Amiga Corp, and I was shipped out to Los Gatos to work on the operating system.
Seems like that was a long, long time ago :-)

You lucky bastard! You must of worked with the man himself, Jay Miner. Man! that must of been a blast. The whole Lorraine prototype thing. Flying by the seat of your pants to get this legendary system in before the 1984 launch deadline.
Dude I would have given anything for that. Too bad I was probably only 7 at the time. My first look at Amiga was in 87, and seeing Marble Madness and Bobble Bubble really rocked my world. Never had I seen anything like that. And having only seen Atari 2600s and the occasional c64, you can imagine my enthusiasm.
Anyway my experience with Amigas were always positive. Best years of my life. I can confidently say that no other system will ever have the same effect on me, and captivate me for over a decade.
