Still got my Amiga 500+ and my Amiga 4000/030. The monitor is long dead, but I have 1 TV modulator left. One day I'm going to plug them in & have a play!

and coming from you that is probably praise indeed!

I started on the Atari 400 with the membrane keys, then the Atari 800, then the Atari 800 XL, then the Atari 520 ST, then finally the Atari 1040 STFM, which I used for music production.

I did also have an Amiga 500, as I had heard so much about them, and I was disappointed with the games capability.

The Atari, IMHO had it beat hands down.

Bollocks

so was better the midi port was great!

in addition I also could put the sound output through the music system and so in effect had surround sound - and that was back in 1993

which probably makes me a bit of a twunt

Now that would have made for an interesting Hen Party (although thinking about it he'd be double booked....)

I used to go to a computer club when I had my Commodore 64. The sole purpose of the club was playing and pirating games. Those were the days, think we had every pirating device known to man. Including a thing called freeze frame (it think) and some peripheral port circuitboard you could plug two of the commodore cassette mashines into, think it amplified the signal. It was much more relaible than normal tape to tape on a hi fi. God I feel old!

Sometimes I regret throwing out all those old 5 1/4" floppies.

I'd love to be a spider under the table when Wxman pitches that idea to the insurance guys.

Their response:

OK, Wxman as a tour guide for Saga.

Oops, he could probably get back handers from pension companies.

Actually I think that could be a good idea.

Storm-Chaser Holidays (tm).

Given the coverage of extreme weather phenomenon on the telly, there are no doubt plenty of people who would like an organised package-tour, led by an expert such as Wxman.

A good investment opportunity, I'd say.
