Amiga wasn't my first, but it's the first computer that you can sort of use for something other than playing games. And the novelty of playing 80s and early 90s games wear off after 5 minutes for me at least. I have various emulated amiga systems, some are faithful recreations of era specific setups, like whatever was possible at the time I owned one myself, and some are testing what can be achieved with whatever progress have been made since. It's just fun to fiddle around with. But no matter how cool the games were at the time, I just find them to be boring now compared to new games  :P

Sadly I missed the whole C64. My dad bought us a Spectrum 48k.
Then we moved on to Atari STFM and then to Amiga.

I do own The C64. Just so I can play Short Circuit and a few others. As after hearing SID music and playing some of the games, I'm hooked on SID tunes.

Just ordered one. I started with an C16, and short after upgraded to an C64. Together with a friend and my dad we followed an Basic training for some weeks. 1 day every week in the evening. This was such a great time. For home use i managed to create applications in basic.  The c64 was my childhood computer.  Some years ago i bought 1 from a online website. But it thing died after a few months. It is old stuff.
So when i saw there was a new one coming, it was pretty clear and i ordered one.  The standard one is ordered. Since that one (the beige color) brings back memory's.
