Heh, brings back memories. My first Amiga was 500+ (ECS with 1MB of Chip RAM) and 40MB HDD with 4MB of additional Fast Ram. I used to do some 3D modeling using imagine and Real3D :D

I didn't have an Amiga until it was already considered retro. Now I have a 500, 1200 and 3000. I almost bought an Amiga 4000 instead of the Gateway 486 DX2-66 I bought before going to college. As much as I like the Amiga, I can't say that I ultimately regretted my decision.
