G'Day from Australia

06 November 2015, 01:36

Hi all,

Getting back into the Amiga scene after 15-18 years absence.

Started on the C64 many many years ago, went to the A500, then to the A600 then to the A1200... Sold each one to get the next... but then sold my beloved A1200 as real life got in the way.... but now I am back with an A500 with a gotek, A600, and my latest A1200. (also have a boxed A2000 but thinking of selling that)

I remember being a gun on the 1200....now I can't even remember the basic stuff lol

Joined this forum after some awesome help on a FB page from Allan (DDNI) and Rob (Daedalus)

Looking forward to getting back into the greatest PC ever made

Cheers John

Another Australian. Welcome buddy.

Nice that you got the whole range of Amigas especially the 1200. That's real hard to come by in Australia. I've been looking at getting one for a long time. But the steep overprices on them are ridiculous.

I just stick with my 500+Gotek and WINUAE for everything else.

Later. .

Thanks mate.

Yes the 1200 was a great find, and it has some extra added bits in it as well.

So very lucky.
