It was a good computer my perants bought one when i was a kid had it for years tomb raider 3, house of the dead, paint and listening to cd's was amazing.

My favourite OS, it runs like a bullet without any questions asked, even more so than Linux

That... is a 5£ party!

You've basically accessed the modern dark web since there's no real difference aside from the pay method.. Those plebes actually think they've discovered something.

When I was a kid I took the rubber part off the joystick and stuck it on my forehead and it made a hickey for a week.

😂

Nah bro literally has a jet engine in his office

Windows Xp was the best with system restore one time I had to go as far as to go through restoring the master boot record on three hard drive was crazy but I got it had to do it manually but I got it

idk, i bought an amiga in 1986, and i loved it. but now i recognize that period of my life, tracking down the commodore dead end, as a wasted learning opportunity. by 1990, my professional career could not advance without a pc compatible. i was frustrated with commodore's inability to create a meaningful successor. i would ask, what came after the archimedes? was it another dead end? was ms-dos and windows the ultimate be-all and end-all, with all other paths a dead end?

Hey guys I personally am a fan of old school Atari games as a concept. I am currently developing a game called Quinlin which is inspired by Atari games, it's an adventure game with various survival, exploration and crafting elements. It is story driven but also is going for a free-roam but guided approach. I think some good modern parallels are games like Red Dead Redemption 2 and games like Minecraft and Morrowind. The original idea was spawned while I was a teen and working landscape with my step-father. I have a working demo that you can find on my channel for PC. I would really appreciate feedback.

I mean it’s great… but I expected music from the fiver

IBM on their gold times, for sure.

"MAGIC"

they finally made scp 079 real

It sounds like the way most record players make a slight noise anyhow when playing without speakers, although I can hear this is a bit louder

Never gonna give you up …….

Try a pin pushed through the narrow end of a piece of paper rolled into a cone shape. That does the trick.

Had some fun with the PS1, although at the time Half life on the PC absolutely wiped the floor with it.The PS2 was where it really got good.

This software was the worst. games that were already hacked could easily be copied within workbench. Xcopy was supposed to copy the new games, but it never worked once

Didn't they release a CD drive for the 1200 that turned it into a CD32?

Dude realizing that he bought his neighboor's 90s laptop

My dude, a third of this video is an ad.

Surfing the web in 2024: man all this ai shit suucks Surfing the web in 2001: They did WHAT to the world trade centre??

The Archimedes had a world-class BASIC as standard, as part of the OS. The Amiga had multiple competing BASICs with no clear winner. The Amiga's OS loaded from floppy so for useful work you needed two drives, or ideally, a hard disk. The Archimedes' OS was in ROM, so a single drive was much more viable.

Loved OS2 back in the day but not paying for it in 2024, there are too many better options for much less if not free.

How can an Amiga without AGA chipset even be considered to be in the top list of Amiga systems?

What about the year 2000 type problem for the amiga computers? I'd like to get one again but how is this addressed?

Yapping stops at 0:48 You're welcome.

Seems to have a more sensible keyboard layout than the A500...i have amiga500s and find the numeric keypad section rather redundant....seen one of these on ebay and am quite tempted.

Ahhhh. When you purchased software and owned it. Now we have to rent it.

*P A D D L E S !*

So cool! Based on this review, I'm gonna order one of these. (So there you go, tell Atari that it generated a sale.) I played Pong in Sears in the 1970s and spent a lot of $$ in arcades playing Breakout, Centipede, and the like. I competed in the Atari 2600 Asteroids contest (and ended up with a miserable score!) in the late 1970s or earl 1980s. I cut my teeth cloning Breakout on the IBM PC my first year in college, and never looked back. As a female student with a talent for coding, I ended up a freelance computer game programmer for the world's first computer games for girls company. Business application programming work after graduation wasn't nearly as fun, and the fancy graphics of today's computer games leave too little room for my imagination. (My 21st century gaming claim to fame is owning an iPad I can't ever connect to the net ever again, because it's got an old version of Bejeweled on it that I can literally spend an entire international flight playing, without noticing time passing.) So, LOL, I think I'm in the target market for this.

I think Commodore could have been as successful as Apple as there was still a lot of latent support for the brand in the 90s. It just needed the right product, much like the iMac and OSX was for Apple. It’s a real shame it folded. I gave up on my computer programming path after the Commodore 128, which I rarely booted into anything other than Commodore 64 mode (having first started with a ZX81, Vic-20, C64). The Amiga era sort of passed me by, as they were too expensive. But I was aware of them and would have loved one at the time. When I returned to computers in the early 90s, they were all ugly 286s made by uninspiring brands I’d never heard. All running Windows 3.1, with 2 digit LEDs on the front (still have no idea what those were for), Turbo buttons and no out of the box way to program it. I didn’t really get the appeal. But got my first Mac back then (LC475) and never looked back.

ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! Wow. Definitely the best time to be an Amiga (and Atari ST) FAN these days? :)

277$ cad is crazy

"Before you ran your phonebill up to astronomical levels", that's what's happening with us today, we use mobile hotspots on top of mobile data for internet and we're being charged the same monthly fee as Elon Musk's Starlink. We could get his internet for the price we're being charged. Of course, you'd also have to pay super expensive equipment fees, but the monthly fee without equipment cost is the same. And they're threatening to charge us more, all because I downloaded a couple games that were like 7 gigs each or somewhere around there and downloaded some small programmes and I also did upload some KZbin videos in 720p and 1080p and watch some in 1080p. I do suppose you could say it's pretty astronomical!

if anything, I feel like the NA market for Sinclair computers was the biggest flop.

"It's not fully featured, and it isn't exactly the same..." You said this for every OS almost 🤧 Any reason to do this instead of a VM? More accurate, easy to do, and can actually install programs 😅 Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems pointless

The Xbox knockoff would have been way cooler if you could press in the joysticks or pull up to use it as a paddle. The seperate joystick/paddle is nice, but a whole seperate cost.

There was no rubbish social media platforms back then..life was simple and fun

I didn’t know that vinyl could be played with anything other than a record player before this. My perception of reality has been destroyed 🤯.

I think it has a certain charm, I love it...

thanks id software for killing amiga.

2600+ also runs 7800 games

im still use macbook 2011 pro lite edition and this worked! im get this macbook from my father and im use him like personal pc and this is not bad :D

No it's 2024😂😂

Acorn's marketing was always sooooo dull. Education & science first, fun very much last.

$79 for one license tied to that computer? LOL nope.

The QL aimed too low I think. At the time, serious business and education users went for BBC computers or PCs. Later on, cheapskate businesses chose Amstrad PCs and probably regretted it. When labour costs for maintenance are a thing, then a standard modular system is optimal.

Can you money do that?
