But what about ...Broccoli!? You didn't say anything about no Broccoli.


Broccoli falls under the "anything non Amiga" wording, everyone knows you only use broccoli for cleaning the loo... :)

I just awarded this thread a single star! Black hole wasn't on the list.


That one was corny even by your standards... I've just taken your gold star away for that, now go stand in the corner... ;)

@Nlandas

As you didn't mention what you didn't mention then I can only assume that what you didn't mention was one of the unmentionables, so therefore you did pretty well, I think... :)

PS:I've just came back from church where they were philosophising on the two main computer systems Apple & Microsoft and how the money they have between them could solve all the world disasters... :D

Erm... think I'll ban meself from this thread now... ta, ta... ;)

Still use my A500 for gaming, althought it's killing me at the moment with hardware woes. It may need to retire :(

Don't talk about it much, but my nearly 4 year old loves playing SWIV :)

A500 hardware donations required ;)

Hi,

For a minute here I thought I was at AmigaWorld, but darn it, it's only Franko.
trying to talk Amiga again on the Amiga.org site. What a waste of broadband width

Hi,

I would like to report that the author of this subject matter has failed to release a XXX rating on this post, he is talking about nude Amiga subject matter. This kind of material shouldn't be allowed on Amiga.org

Hi,

I wouldn't say that, if you have an old star 1000 color dot matrix printer and a 2400 baud modem, you could possibly download porn shots and print them out in color. I remember I used to be able to do 2 a day with that equipment.

I also enjoyed playing soliton, and mega ball, and was always trying out new versions of doom to see if they will work.

If you like doing data basing you can log in all your Amiga floppies, and pc floppies, I use pen pal for that.

If you are a mod collector you can collect and play mods on your favorite Amiga.

The Amiga still has a lot of use today, it won't be able to play games like fallout3, or surf the internet and show all the video's on the internet, but it all depends what you like to do, be creative, and if you really get tired of it, take one and smack Karlos up alongside the head, and say that one is from smerf for spoiling his trolling fun.

but

then again if you hit Karlos in the head even with a good A2000 the only thing you would break would be the A2000, and that would be a waste of a good Amiga.

@smerf

I know. Dont get me wrong, I do hop on WinUAE (My Amiga 1200 is still in pieces and hasnt been touched in over a year) and mess with octamed and listen to the old modules or play some of Psygnosis games.

I was just trying to be a smart ass and just talk like Franko. I only normally just check out whats happening on Amiga.org, but just gets very old when he inputs on every single thing/thread.  Reckon he has a wee bit of a problem.

@Franko

Dont bother replying. Don't care. Don't waste your time. I don't have to like everybody. Only stating you are very annoying.

I always wanted to play Railroad tycoon but I never quite figured it out. Think I'll need to find a manual somewhere.

Yep..  I use every night to write some Cars Articles for the Web compreautomovil.com, visit forums, check email, news, and more in Internet. All this under cool Mods music atmosphere..
Sometimes Mp3s too. (depending on my  mood)

My Amiga its like my pen to write.. and help me many times to be creative..

And ofcourse play WHDload Games.

Incredibly Amiga can still be used nowdays.

Anyway if you can`t use, or not want, you lazy to use another machine (in addition to your PC) , does not seem practical, thats ok..  i think if you not use you Amiga nowdays (or not have any Amiga)..does not mean you're not Amigan.

Hardly another computer soon appear as Amiga in the whole concept that means, Currently it seems to me Currently I think Amiga  may be more a philosophy or a way to take computer science. All the people I know who was Amiga user has a different way of seeing what concerns computers.
