My old towerrised Amiga 1200 is finally back from the attic, where it had been collecting dust for the last nine years.
My initial interest in the Amiga stemmed from my uncle, who had a great interest for the Amiga platform. His interest and computer equipment soon spilled over on me. So eventually my C64 was replaced by a Amiga 500 around 1991. I got a Amiga 1200 Magic for christmas in 1995. I remember not being stunned by the performance, but it was OK. I got a Blizzard 1260 with 8 meg RAM some time after that which stunned me anyway
Initially I used the Amiga for everything, including word processing, gaming, music, gfx, but I used it less and less until 2002 when it finally was put in the attic - I had become my own worst enemy a peecee user!
When I brought down the beauty from the attic last christmas worked like a charm after replacing the harddrive with the help of winuae. Subsequently, I stumbled upon the various Amiga internet fora and have now taken an interest in the Amiga. Nice to see that the Amiga is not completely dead and that it's living on in various forms. It would have been fun to try of OS 4.1, but sadly it is too expensive for me atm.
Btw, kudoz to the WHDLOAD team!
