Entry 31st October 2023: Post 1: Amiga 1200 - Still crazy in love after 30 years.
Amiga 1200 - Still crazy in love after 30 years.
She is 30 years old today and still working without fault. Booted
straight into the Workbench as she always has. Few things in my
life have given me so much pleasure. In truth I would be totally
lost without her. Who would have thought that thirty years on from
that very first day I switched her on I would still be crazy in
love. There are no other words to describe the relationship I have
with this computer.
Anyhoo... here's to the next thirty. She will definitely outlive me.
