Hi all.
I've just joined Lemon Amiga & 64.

I had an Atrai 2600 in the 70's which I loved
Circus Atari being my favourite.

Got a C64 in 84, Not sure how many hours I lost to silent service on that.
Still got my Mk1 and all the software, loved it when shoot em up construction kit came out. Found a game I made on it when clearing out the parents loft last year! Also have a 64C that I mainly use for gaming now.
Got my first Amiga 500 in 89, still have that red light bad boy. I have also just got a 1200 as it runs the flight sims faster, although I have managed to wipe the HDD with out checking I had the install disc first. I use the original hardware/software for gaming and haven't tried emulation as yet. Favourite games are by Cinemaware and Microprose, also like strategy games.It's not just about the games for me, I like the effort that used to go into the packaging and manuals back in the day. Also own a PC and PS3 (forgive my sins)

That's my commodore history in a nutshell

Thanks. I have already learnt how to reinstall WB after wiping the HDD on the A1200 and to check that I have the correct discs befor messing around with things I don't understand. Might get brave and try upgrading to 3.1 some day.
What's the worst that could happen !
