I’m humbled and amazed. Congratulations
« on: October 30, 2024, 07:04:34 PM »
Somehow I'm still getting emails for this place, and I just wanted to say that I’m both humbled and amazed that you guys and this site are still going strong.   I haven’t looked at the date of registration for this site, but it feels like it must be what.. 25 years?

Just wanted to drop in, wish everyone the best, and hope things are a lot less dramatic than when I stepped away several years ago now

Take care,

Wayne

Whois shows 4-25-1995 as the registration date for amiga.org, but there was that first year where I accidentally let the domain lapse and had to reregister it in a panic, so wow.  29, or 30 years depending on which date you want to consider.   

I have a daughter (through marriage) Just turned 30, and as a family we’re raising my 2-year-old grandson..  I am feeling really old right now.. :D

Hello Wayne!
  As one of the old timers here I would like to say how GREAT it is to hear from you again!  First the important stuff...  Congrats on being a Grandpa.  We too have a two year old grandson and it's a blast but Mom and Dad live right down the road so at the end of the day we can drop him off.  Like they say... Kids are for the young.  I don't know how you do it?  We wish you all the best!!

  To quote Neil Peart of Rush.. "The more that things change, The more they stay the same". 30 plus years and legally we are really no further along. (not counting yesterdays news)  Same dumpster fire... Different day...  We still have the PPC but 68X is so much more popular.   OS 3.2 AND 4.X.  OS updates as the speed of smell.   It’s like we never left 1994.  LOL

  On the plus side with the wonderful world of emulation everyone can easily relive ANY Amiga experience they want.  OS developent has brought us OS 3.2 AND 4.x  Add to that the INCREDIBLE resurgence of the retro computer scene that has brought us replacements of just about every part of the Amiga.  Cases, PCBs, most of the chips, accelerators, video and more 'new' systems than you can shake a stick at....  Boy do we live in wonderful AND confusing times.  ;-)

  Now if SOMEONE could FINALLY gain control maybe we could make it to 1995.  LOL

  Don’t be a stranger!

  Oh and one more thing...  One HELL of a legacy you left here.  Here's to ANOTHER 30 years!!
