Welp, got my first early 1986 and have never used anything
else... have 3 on at the moment... I'm typing on the A4000 desktop... wifey is on the PPC A4000 tower networked to an A1200 which hosts a mud... I have 30 amiga systems all up... and about to buy another A1200 to reconnect to the 29" TV through GVP genlock... I happen to have a spare 50mhz 030 and 128 meg mem chip heh anyway... I could say I'll go for 30 years but soon I will make the move to Amiga1 and I intend to buy more than one of those... and plan to actually develop somewhere along the line or at least become a compiling guru... yip pee!

Well, there is at least one good thing that I can say about Akira, he does plan to keep his Amiga for 30+ years. He may even start to grow on me. Just imagine it, Akira and me as friends.

Unfortunately my A1200 died a death a good ffour or five years ago, so I've been emulating ever since, as aside from getting that "real Amiga feel" I don't see the need to use one (I use a PC for all of my work-processing/graphic design/web design stuff as a lot of the standards I require aren't available via an Amiga).
I do intend to continue emulating Amigas for as long as is possible, though. The Amiga is dead, but its memory shall live on... |

NEVER sell your first computer... that's a rule... you found that the hard way, too bad
 I still have my 386sx, and I am very happy! I never considered selling it, too... and I could use the cash back then...
