Hi just doing an intro post, 48 year old, used to have an A500 back in the day, have one now but looking to get a 1200. pointed here by Retropassion(old Amiga Passion.)
we are of a similar age. Any stories around your Amigas back then and now? What do/did you do with them? Gaming exclusively or Olson maybe rendering or programming?
Did you have an memorable moments back the that were special? Like I had when almost literally my jaw dropped when seeing an Amiga with Defender of the Crown for the very first time... still remember that.
Welcome, welcome. Like you, I am skirting that late 40’s vintage. Also started with a 500. I bought a friends A1200 setup a while back, which was rather lucky. Hope you find one at a reasonable price, or maybe fpga might be a good way to go. I am in London, what part of the land are you located?
Welcome! 48 here as well....and my first Amiga was a 500 I bought on the C= student discount plan they offered to college students back then (1084s monitor, A500 and 512K expansion memory for $800) in 1990.
Good luck finding a 1200! Unfortunately, the prices have skyrocketed (at least over here on this side of the pond where they were not as common) the last 6 years or so. Too rich for my blood to get into now, so thankfully I grabbed one of each model a few years back (and built other ones from scratch with the reproduction motherboards).
