Hi! I'm interested in information on "Old Users" 🙂 What about a library file with introductions on "not so new users"? Sincerely, J"org Kultur via Whap! (WARNING: Weird English)

hmmm… I'm afraid the 'weird english' has taken over. I can't make any sense of what you are asking…. would you mind re-stating your question?

Probably most of us fall into the "not so new users." For programming, try AmigaTech. As a matter of fact, Joerg, quite a few of us got Amigas in the fall of 1985, usually from the first shipment to arrive in our respective cities.

And many of us also have stories about going through major trials with those first machines… Those were the good ole days of waiting 30 minutes to link a program…

"And I had to walk six miles to school, in bare feet, even when it snowed, and I was damn glad to be able to do so…"

Well, no joke on this side. I actually drove through a Hurricane in the middle of the night out on the outer banks to pick up my Amiga which had been delivered to Dick Barnes out in Hatteras NC. I didn't want to wait the 3 days it would have taken UPS to get it to me…
