I should also point out that at 42 years old I'm kind of past the "hanging posters on my walls with blu-tac" phase.  (Around 20 years past it)  :D


wait for your midlife crisis ;)

I've been wanting to get some late 80's or early 90's movie posters to put around my amiga :D

Voted no, but one the other hand maybe owning one of these posters and keeping it by in mint condition would be good idea, as in years to come you could put it on ebay and make a small fortune out of it... :)

People will pay crazy prices on ebay for "anything" that's old and in "mint" condition... :)

Why not just print one out yourself? It would take me about 20 minutes - 15 of which would involve going to the office supply store to get the glossy poster paper.

I am a negative, rude, prick.

Sorry, but I can't find much positive to say here. Cheesey as heck slogan, plus I dont believe in a machine that's less powerful than something 1/10th of its price and would be embarassed to be seen with a poster with that slogan for that product. Good luck to OS4.x users, but in my humble opinion the X1000 is an insult to the machine its name pays homage to.

*Maybe* if it folded Alfred E Newman style into a "What, you're serious?" picture I'd consider 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.

The simpler the question and the more straight forward it is, simply leads to things going totally off the wall round here... :lol:

So elaborating on your opinion is suddenly "trolling" ?
Interesting.

@ klx300r

It's an ugly poster with a kind of lame slogan on it. Sorry, that's just what it looks like and why you're getting some weird comments about it. You wouldn't really want that on your wall, would you?

The poster actually looks like something an anti-X1000 person might come up with.  Has a hint of piss-take about it...
