Like my cups?
« on: February 12, 2013, 11:51:36 PM »
Just got these from a eBay vendor :)

If you can't read they are C= 64, Timex ZX81, and Amiga 1200.

let us know how durable they are... are they meant to be microwave safe? ;)

I think my brother needs an A1200 version.

I sure like them! Would be so cool to have one at the office. Wonder if the co-workers would like it or wonder what it is...

Even my cat doesn\'t like me.

Not sure if that was an attempt at humour, but I'm fairly sure those would be considered mugs...

Thank for the link! Unfortunately the shipping will cost more than the actual mug:(

Ohh I love them! I love mugs so I'll will consider getting one :)
As a heavy abuser of coffee the 1200 one will fit me fine, would be nice to see if they survive my dishwasher :)

Back when I worked at an Amiga store, there was a place in the mall that would put your mug on anything, including mugs. ;-) They usually worked from a photo or an actual person. I talked them into letting me bring a floppy with a jpeg version of the video toaster splash screen. Later we had a visit from a Newtek rep who wondered where we got that mug.

Nice, but surely that's an A500 not an A1200..

Well... I couldn't find the original framestore, but I did find this one converted to HAM8 and then jpeg. It should be good enough for a mug.
