Welcome to A.org Pell! This is by far my favorite Amiga hangout and I have been here forever it seems. I lurked here for years before becoming a member, then lurked more as a member before starting to post messages in these forums, but now they can't get me to shut up (though some wish I would).
All website forums have good and bad sides and members, but I think that this site has much more of the good stuff and you will enjoy participating with this group of crazy Amiga addicts. Not having any experience with the 8bit computers, I can't relate to the C64 days, but I was rolling on the floor laughing when someone here welcomed you to the 1990's for your decision to find out more about the Amiga line of computers.
That is truly where the Amiga was at it's peak, and probably always will be most remembered for, as the improvement since then has been at a snails pace, but at least it has not stopped and could not be killed off, no matter how many companies have failed to revive it.
Always glad to see another new Amiga user, so again, welcome aboard and hope you stay a while.
