    Talking My computer turned 20 today.

    The manufacture day on my system reads Apr 16 88. I have upgraded this thing to point where all my friends think it’s a theoretical future computer from space. It has a 6600 Core 2, Raid 0 raptors, 8800 GTS Video. My next PC is going in to the VX.
    Cars designed by spreadsheets make sense. Cars designed by engineers make history.

    I ended up giving my A2000/toaster combo to my brother - I'm not sure if he still has it. Kudos to keeping yours alive!

    Wow... I just sold my 1200 on EBay for quite a bit more than I thought it was worth... I've still got a 500 in the closet if anyone wants one.

    LOL! Good gues but no its a Fujitsu. When you travel the smaller the laptop the better. I have a custom laptop mount in my VX for it.

    Nice! You should hang the 500 on the wall. It’s a good conversation piece. I have 2 500s 4 2000s and 1 cd32 the last Amiga made by commodore.
