How international is your Amiga?
« on: August 18, 2009, 05:53:23 PM »
I have been rebuilding my Amiga collection after many years  :)  and I seem to now have a truly international Amiga! I have purchased parts and pieces from Greece, Australia, Germany, the USA, and Great Britain. If I'm leaving any countries out it is merely my faulty memory...
    How about your setup?

My Amiga is a local Amiga, with local parts. Strange parts simply do not fit on my local Amiga!

All of my Amiga stuff is American with the exception of my Deneb which was bought from England and my 2060 which was bought from Germany.

Very funny question!
Lets see...all my Amigas (for obvious reasons) come from Europe...but...mmm...
Some of my A1200 wre from UK, others were from Spain...
Inside components: i have bought pieces from guys located in: USA, Canada, Malta, Luxembourg, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, Poland, Hungary, Australia, New Zealand, Greece, France, Spain, Italy, Sweeden, Brazil, Uruguay, Scotland, Ireland and Great Britain as well and Turkey!

Oh, and my former A4000 & A3000 were from USA as well...

My CD32 was from Canada, but travel to France and then to Argentina....

I guess thats makes me the most international Amiga user hehehehe

truly international Amiga! I have purchased parts and pieces from

Ya might want to look a little deeper than just where the parts and pieces were purchased. How about where it was designed, manufactured and assembled. Because it was bought from area "x" doesn't indicate it's true origin.

I'll have to look on the back of the machine, I could have sworn it was made in China or Hong Kong, but the computer has sat in the same spot for a few years and I don't remember what the label says.
