Oh how I miss the trusty ole Commodore 64. I have used computers for nearly 27 years now. The first home computer my parent’s purchased was the Commodore 64. My father encouraged me to learn BASIC, the first programming language I ever learned. The most I could do was:
10 Print “Hello”
20 Goto 10
I remember typing my first paper about the giant planets of the Solar System with WordPerfect back in 9th Grade on the Commodore 64. Those were the days. I eventually moved up to the Commodore Amiga 500 which I used until 1996.
This week is the 25th Anniversary of the Commodore 64. Read up about at CNET.com.

I remember using these type of computers when I was in middle school in the early 90s.
This was the first computer I used too. I remember overnight hackin session poking and peeking machine code and the slow cassette tape for storing data. I wanted an Amiga badly but they were too expensive in Mumbai where I grew up.
Hello:
We are a group of Majorca (Balearic islands Spain) who we artisan made hardware for the users of Commodore Amiga, which they need new and exclusive hardware.

Then that, would be a pleasure to be in contact with the enemy to comment any question on the legendary Amigas.
