Hello from South East England!

Hello fellow Amiga fans! Back in the 80's, my Dad upgraded my ZX Spectrum +3 to an Amiga 500 and I have been hooked on Amiga's ever since. After the 500, I had an awkward wee fling with an A600 then on to a long term relationship with an A1200 with 120MB HD. I played a lot of games but also loved using Wordsworth for writing homework, DPaint for drawing and I did a lot of coding in AMOS. The worse Christmas memory of my life was waiting for a Blizzard expansion board that Santa failed to ever bring. Big red git.

As of today, all the old Amiga hardware is gone, but I've invested in AF ROMs, bought AmigaOS 4.1 FE from Hyperion and am running A1200 and PPC 4.1 emulated environments.

Looking forward to getting back into the Amiga scene and playing Xenon 2!

Welcome to EAB, this is a top website for Amiga followers.

I own the real deal when it comes to PPC and when it is working correctly, it is still very impressive, even by todays standards! OK, so that is a big thing to say but I think you know what I mean.

Original hardware is getting less and less, which is another reason why it is so expensive nowadays.
