The AMIGA, great or flop. Your memories...

Hi everybody...

Anyone who sees posts from me see the word AMIGA on my machines' terminal prompts.

AMINET is the oldest Internet SW repository and currently holds 82,800+ freely available SW packages.

About Aminet - AminetWiki

I am a member of LAG, (Linclonshire Amiga Group), in the UK and meet 6 times a year.
I still code for the old tub as do many, many others, and have done loads of uploads, one being of professional quality and used at where I worked before retiring. Most of the apps were related to electronic measuring equipment, yeah you guessed it one was a real oscilloscope of which the front end GUI is on this site somewhere...

If you have ever owned an AMIGA, which BTW the CLI has a subset of UNIX terminal escape codes, what are your fond or hated memories of the platform.

And last but not least my A1200 has been powered up. (except for involuntary power cuts etc), since 1992. The only failure so far is the external 5.25 inch Floppy Drive...

I look forwards to your memories...
