friends,
it's really amazing that after twenty-nine years since the
announcement of the amiga 1000 there are still so many enthusiasts of the platform, its hardware, its follow-ons, and its derivatives. i know of no other platform that has lived so far beyond what anyone could have reasonably imagined would have been the end in 1994 with the death of commodore.
amidst all of the in-fighting, the scams, the noise, and the drama, there still exists a few thousand of us, still clinging to what we all know to be the most enjoyable computing platform alive.
take a moment today as the amiga begins the second day of its twenty-ninth year just to pause and enjoy what you have, be it a 1200, a 3000T, minimig, SAM, a PC running UAE, an X1000, or whatever. give it a hug. for whatever flavor you enjoy, to quote trevor: 'let's keep this party going.'
happy birthday, amiga. :drink:
