This board has surpassed my expectations.....

I guess a lot of people here feel the same like you.

I tried a lot of computers and consoles out, and still have a lot, as does woody.cool, but Commodore stays one of my preferred brands from that era, but I also think that it has a lot to do with the fact that I got my C64 in 1984, and still have very fond memories of it.

Yeah! It's definately an Amiga thing with me.
Like Demon Cleaner says, I've got A LOT of retro machines at home, a big section of which is Amiga stuff.

Most the people here are just people who prefer things with character rather than mass produced soulless crap like P.C.s. We all dream of a day where creativity is prized above profitability or at least I do.

Very nice post Chewieshmoo, and just like the others I'm exactly the same. Owning many systems but none quite compare to the Amiga. The Dreamcast did come close.

And thanks for the comments regarding classicamiga. It is great to read that members are enjoying their time here and having some fun alongside like minded friends.

I crossed over from an Atari 800 to the Amiga. Jay did a good thing when he designed the 800's graphics. After seeing the Amiga 1000 in 1985, I was not impressed with the Atari ST. I couldn't afford the 1000 but in 1988 I bought a used Amiga 500. It was the best investment I think I have ever made and I am still an Amiga nut to this day. I emulate an Atari 800 but I use an Amiga 3000!

Cool, yeah. I remebered really wanting a A3000 but it was way out of my league as a lad. Even when the A4000 came out I STILL wanted the A3000, there just seemed to be pros and cons for each model............

[Zetr0]

I have

A500
A600 x2
A1200 x4
A2000
A4000 x2
