I'm pretty sure there'll be a fair number kicking around on eBay. The original 1985 model was the Amiga 500 (which I had), but more interesting is the A1200 which has various improvements including, as I remember, 24-bit colour. (That was about 14 years ago :) As I recall, the usual rubbish - bad management and various changes of ownership for dubious motives - killed Amiga :/ Alastair PS There are still Amiga (printed) magazines in the UK, and people have written TCP/IP stacks, Web browsers, email clients and everything else Internet; the Internet didn't exist in consumer form during the Amiga's "official" existence so the connectivity had to be invented by third parties ... ! ________________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned for all viruses by the MessageLabs SkyScan service.
