I was originally thinking of upgrading my current PC in spring. Now I’m thinking of getting an Amiga instead. Just for the fun of it. I remember my old A500 most fondly. I don’t think that I ever got the most out of it, mainly because that springy keyboard was such hell to work with.
Don’t worry, this really is just a flight of fancy. It will pass.

New Amiga
Ctrl-Amiga-Amiga to reboot… ahh the memories!
One of these days when I’m back at my parents’ place I’ll dig my old Amiga out from the loft and retrieve all the old music of my mate’s that I’ve got on pile of old 3.5″ floppies.
We were quite chuffed to find a copy of an old Amiga Computing cover disk on the web last year with a tune of his on it. And even more chuffed when we managed to convert it to an mp3.
Ah, yes. And remember how you could set up two screens with different resolutions and then drag one over the other? Amigas really were the Betamax of the computer world.
