Hi Guys and Gals
I stumbled on this forum and must say HELLO to you all. I'm Pete - 51 and a long time fanatic on the Amiga's. Although sadly i don't own one at the moment, it's really great to see you guys {and gals} are still flying the flag for what are in my eyes still GREAT computers. I was searching for ROMS and this is how i found your forum. I got a great BUZZ when i got the emulator and some of the classic games. I hope to be able to give input here in some way or other. There you go, that's a l o n g H e l l o {bet you've fell to sleep now }

Did you find the ROMs you were looking for, or are you still searching? |

Ahhh yes my apologies meant to say congratulations there!!! and i do dabble in the emulation side and have my main Amiga system replicated through win uae, but i've had my main 1200 a fair few years and have just kind of added to it since the initial 25.00 lay out lol :/ ....need to do more with the old c64 though it sees little use due to the lack of software on disk i can source |

Because the 'OMFG! ROMZORZ!' sites use that term. Have a look here for example : http://www.freeroms.com/amiga.htm
Of course it doesn't make any sense. |
