Hello everyone.
Just realised I had posted in a couple of threads and not actually come in here to introduce myself.
SO, HELLO !! 
I'm from Glasgow in Scotland, and like a lot here got my 500+ back when they came out, I guess 1990 I got mine.
Loved it, had a ton of fun on it.
But also like many out there (I'm guessing) moved onto other things that took up lots of time, so not much left for computers.
Dabbled in consoles for a time.
but since moving out here to Western Canada in 2002, I've been building back up a nice collection of gaming machines and older computer stuff.
SO, fast forward to today, got a nice 500+ again ( PAL version as that was what I grew up with) and have a 1200 waiting for me in the UK as I am visiting home this month.
Main reason for getting a 1200 is that my eldest kid has rather claimed the 500+, but that's fine, jus another generation to enjoy Amigas.
Going to try a few hardware mods too this time around as there's a lot of stuff you can do now that you couldn't do in 1990.
Thanks everyone.

The only thing I remember about Calgary were those famous winter olympic games. Welcome, though!
