It's good to be back
« on: March 28, 2011, 04:01:58 PM »
After 11 years in the wilderness, I'm back in AMiGA land.

I've dragged my rather yellow AMiGA's from the cupboard and instigated Operation RTG (Return To Glory), so I've been busy scouring the Amgakit website and buying lots of bit's n' bob's and bringing them back to operational health.

The next few month's are going to be fun!! :)

Welcome back to the Amiga. My A1200's also on the sepia side, there's some stuff called retrobrite that will apparently get it back to it's original colours.

Welcome back! :)
It's always nice to discover the Amiga world once again (with its ups and downs ;)  ).
"Warm" experience anyway...

Good grief... another Scotsman with an Amiga (thought I was the only one left in this corner of the world with one)... :D

Why did you leave the poor wee thing all alone and neglected up in a loft for 11 years think of all the frustration you've missed,, and now it's gone all yellowie... :(

You need to take a wee look here and find out how to restore the old girl back to her former glory... :)

Thank you for the warm welcome guys.

I've put pictures in the Gallery and I've managed to get my vanilla A1200 up and running.  Next on the list is my BPPC & BVision. :)
