What Amigas R U running?
Just wanted to get a feel for the Amigas people are still running on this board.
Mines a 1200 with a 360Mb hard drive, 6megs ram, second drive and a microvetech multisync monitor. Wish I still had my classic 500, the one that came with the "batman pack". Bet that was the most popular amiga packages in the UK! Some money was spent that christmas by our parents! The hard drive is full of nostalgic games, which is about all I use my Amiga for now. Need to track down some classic microswitch joysticks however for that genuine feel, as my old ones are done for. Bought a pad, but it doesn't seem right. It's unbelievable how far a small hard drive will go on an amiga - it took me ages to fill up! Got a 1 gig hard drive lying around, will that work with the amiga 3.0 OS? Thanks for the input |

I'm just surprised to see this forgotten thread. There are newer ones with exactly the same topic. When we organize eab's history, perhaps we should learn from our past mistakes and prevent duplicate threads. This one could grow into the popular "how many of you actually got amigas" and "which amiga models do you use" threads. Anyway just my humble opinions.

Hey! I think this was MY VERY FIRST THREAD ON EAB!!!!!!!! Written over a year ago yet it seems like yesterday.
Please handle this thread with care EAB brothers - it's very sacred to me and I NEVER WANT IT DELETED - DO YOU HEAR MODS? So no spamming up this thread with useless information. I need to update my Amiga setup as well. Everything's the same except now it's got 10 MB RAM and a 1.2Gig slim line 3.5" HD. WOW POSTING IN MY VERY FIRST THREAD. I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy! I love praising myself. Last edited by Bloodwych; 25 July 2002 at 23:08. |
