Title: So pleased I found this forum
Post by: Ricky on August 11, 2007, 11:12:01 AM
Hi all,

It is so great to see that the AMIGA and AMOS still has a following after all these years. I used to programme in AMOS... has it really been ten years? I think I had all flavours and extensions for it as well. I still consider the Amiga as the best engineered home computer there has been.

I used to design electronic hardware and software, which had the Amiga at its heart. A customer would come to my company and ask for a one off, unique design for whatever specification and use, and I found the Amiga to be a very reliable computer to engineer these circuits around. And somewhat surprisingly I also found AMOS the ideal programming language for the systems I designed. I still have my Amiga (actually four Amigas) in a box in the loft. I am sure I still have all of my AMOS programming stored on the hard drives as well.

After reading through some of the posts here, I have become all nostalgic, and I will definately dust off the cobwebs and get the Amiga hooked up again once I get home. I am rather looking forward to checking some of the unreleased games and associated code that I wrote, to see how well (or not) I programmed back then.

Its great to see that this fantastic computer and programming language has not been forgotten.

Welcome Ricky.  Let us know how your nostaligic trip down Amiga lane went.  Any fond memories return?

I'm sure we'd all be interested in hearing about your old projects.

I hope you enjoy your time at the AMOS Factory.

Yes, I too would love to hear about your old projects. Hope those harddrives still work after all these years.
