it was in 1988/89 so i was 16/17
i had to go to the post office, to take the big pack
giving a lot of money to the employee, that asked me what the hell it was lol

just a standard A500 (english manuals) kick1.2 + workbench 1.2
default noisy drive included

i remember that for all the previous year i made some extra-school little works to gain the money for that... in reality 20% of the price was added from my parents

at least, i reached to keep also the c64
the later years, we all know how great they were/are

i still have that Amiga, the c64 is in my cousin hands instead (just borrowed)
