I was lucky to receive some money from my Grandma for Christmas, so I spent it on a brilliant white A1200 and bought a camera to take photos and videos of it with today:

Wow Cammy that A1200 is in perfect condition, great stuff

And we know it will be well looked after and get decent use.

AT Amigas have one BIG advantage: their cases don't yellow!

The secret to staying young forever is never stop playing with your Amiga!

And stay out of the sun.

My A1200 was made in France!

Is that not just because they are newer though?

However, my 1200 is an AT and isn't yellowed.

My AT A1200 was also made in France... it was a nos system from Amigakit i got some time ago (i've sold it since). I think Amigakit had a load of French A1200's and swapped the keyboards over for UK ones when i got mine.

Me too!
(Oh wait, you said SD? I missed those 2 letters.. I got a 4G CF card for my Amiga)

Well, it just showed up today.
I already formatted it with WinUAE and put a clean WB install on it, but I haven't placed it in the A1200 yet...

Fingers crossed. It works in WinUAE.

Problem is, the only "Card Reader" I have currently is my Photo Printer. It works, but it's a bit awkward.
I suppose a card reader for the laptop will be the next purchase.. ;-)

Of course, if it works, the next question is what do I put on it..
The clean install? ClasicWB, something else??
Well, one step at a time.. ;-)

p.s. LOVE the socks, and I agree with LR. I am getting that old too. I knew a was ..er. .several.. um years ago when my wife (not my wife at the time) was scorekeeping a College softball game. When I got there, I actually asked her if the college game was going to start after the high school game that was going on.. ;-) Man, college girls looked older when I went to college.. ;-) And yet my Amiga is as young as ever..
