Amiga user from way back
« on: November 09, 2010, 03:59:34 PM »
Howdy everyone.  I've been thinking about Amiga a lot the last few days and even went as far as to install WinUAE to check out some of the old games.  What a trip it's been!

I purchased my one and only system (1000) a couple months after they hit the market.  What a cool machine that was.  I also picked up a CD32 about a year after it came out.  I enjoyed that as well.  I believe I sold everything to a used computer shop in the late 90's.

Mainly I used the computer for gaming, but I also used it a lot for making music.  Sadly I have nothing to show for it as none of it was ever recorded and the media is long gone.  But my memory of using that computer will always stay near to my heart.

For me, the excitement of getting that Amiga will never be matched by anything else.  There is just no comparison. :)

Thank you for the welcomes folks.

I'm considering the idea of perhaps buying a system to play around with again.  I miss that Amiga feeling!

Sounds like me a few years ago.  Now I have 15.
