It is very nice to see an Amiga 1200 running OctaMED on stage with the artists.

Perhaps we should send him an A600GS preloaded with the new OctaMED 8 for his live sets?

Calvin Harris as made his first disc "I Created Disco" with an Amiga and Octamed.

Good thing he still have the A1200 which seems as white as ever.

That's a very nice and white looking A1200, great fun that they're still used for such things even today

When I saw his story on instagram, I had to take a few seconds to digest what I was seeing because I recognise that A1200 and as soon as I had confirmation from Sony UK, my mind was blown and it all made sense! It was indeed one of our refurbished A1200 units and yes we did preinstall OctaMED before shipping it out to Sony UK lol.

This is indeed a big year for the Amiga!

you're the one making derogatory comments and political posts. Behave yourself.

I'm not sure how you have navigated the internet this long, if there is a comment about someone you don't like, just skip over it, i didn't like her actions at that time, end of.


And i wasn't being political, i just answered a question from Viddi.

But i do apologize for bringing her hair colour into the equation!

The irony, when you could simply have passed my comment by, but instead thought it was better to tell me to behave I guess anyone who doesn't agree with you is dumb or childish, would that be a fair assessment?

And here you are, 8 years later, still carrying a grudge against someone you don't know for expressing an opinion you didn't like? I'm not sure how you have navigated life this long, etc.

You were the one getting upset over my comment!

And not at all, we all have different opinions, but an opinion was not the issue with her for me.

And here you are, 8 years later, still carrying a grudge against someone you don't know for expressing an opinion you didn't like? I'm not sure how you have navigated life this long, etc.

Again, it wasn't an opinion, and it's not a grudge, you either like someone or you don't, i don't like her just as i don't like or do like lots of other people.
