My first one was an A500 w/4MB Baseboard expansion on a multisync tv (had the A520 adapter also).  Great machine!

A used A1000 from a dealer that took trade-ins toward newer models. System only came with 256k RAM, so saved up for the A1050. Couldn't afford a disk drive at the time, so put up with a lot of disk swapping. Had it hooked to a 13" color TV via an RF modulator too. By the time the A500 was released, I was making more money but realized how expensive the A1000 was to upgrade. Decided to sell my A1000 to a friend and put that money toward a nice A500 setup (Kickstart 1.2) with 1MB RAM and a 1084 monitor. That was my main system for a few more years before I got an A1000 back. :)

It was '85 and I was 7. I came home from school one day and my dad had replaced our C=64 with an Amiga 1000. Within the first 2 months he had bought the Spirit 010 Accelerator with 1 mg of fast and all of our programs stopped working ;) At least all the games I played anyway...

I used that thing until I came home and there was an A3000 in it's place, best Amiga ever. I remember that thing was fast fast fast...

Then Christmas of '92 he got my very own A600. I suppose it's a matter of perspective with the question.

the first amiga i had was an A500 with ks1.3 and 512kb ram, but, had to return it to the shop ('silica' I think) due to a faulty psu and had a replacement A500 with ks1.2 which I still have, complete with red lights and all :)
