UK Amiga users
« on: June 08, 2005, 04:36:33 PM »
There's currently a thread on AW.net looking at the location of UK Amiga users.  Obviously not everyone visits AW.net, so if you don't want to become a member there just to vote, please reply here (but don't then vote there as well ;-)) - the options are:

Scotland
North East
North West
Yorkshire and Humber
East Midlands
West Midlands
Wales
N. Ireland
South West England
South East (not including Essex)
London
East of England (inc Essex)

If you post on other forums with UK users, it'd be great if you could tell them as well...

---edit---

Thanks to the people who have PMed me, but if anyone else wants to take part can they please reply to this thread - it'll keep it on the front page, and make it easier for the results to be read when I'm offline.

Well, as it stands, I have not published a new update to the map for some time, because it appears that, sadly there is only about 150 Amiga users left in the UK


Worrying, considering that the "big" Amiga magazines only closed down in 2000 or so, and they must have had a circulation in the thousands to stay alive even until then - although perhaps their demise hastened the downspiral of users?

I suppose that some users might only login at weekends though; we'll see the full picture then...

Hi! Do you know how many amiga users there are in Norway?
Classic and AmigaOne?


I've got the bare bones of a website rather similar to the Linux Counter that would be useful for tracking Amiga users anywhere.  Someone had volunteered to help with the scripting (very simple php) and had almost got everything working, but I cannot seem to get in contact with him any more.  If you can code in PHP and want to have a look at getting it working, give me a (P)Email :-)

BTW welcome to A.org :-D
