Agreed, but that's not always a bad thing. UAE fit's in my pocket these days. Would need pretty big pockets to put an A1200, display and battery pack in there :D


Off topic, but these days whenever someone mentions pockets I cant help but think of the Brak Show (I think that's what it's called, it's been a while) Christmas Special and the conversation that is something to the effect of, "you cant have sex with your pants up right Dad?", "not unless you've got special pockets son".

Bizarre show (as are most of the adult swim cartoons) along with Harvey Birdman Attourney At Law, Sea Lab, Space Ghost (the same spaceghost from early morning kids cartoons from the early 80's, but he's now a talk show host). If a person wants to experience a drug like intoxication withough trying drugs, the Adult Swin cartoon hour is the best way to do it.

Near as I can tell this is where I write something under the guise of being innocuous, but really its a pot shot at another persons/peoples choice of Amiga based systems. Unfortunately only I cant see how transparent and petty it makes me look.

Hmmm... never heard of any of these shows... :(

Where can they be found... :)

(methinks they must be American or some other obscure place like that...;))

Yeah, I use the Amiga daily, but haven't opened a game in months...
I've been a lot of time making different WB setups... ClassicWB, OS39 with different configurations searching the one with more ram, installing hardware, repairing what I've broken installing hardware :), changing too the file system... Yesterday I spent several hours changing the screen and initial music for my Amikit conversion in a Real Amiga...

Hopefully I'll get an FPGAArcade* this year and I will be able to use an Amiga more often than nowadays.

* In the camp that Minimig, FPGAArcade and Natami are Amigas in every sense of the word

I'd love to download a collection of the best ever Amiga .mod tunes, in the native mod format. Anyone got one?
