You didn’t mention that we tried with those tape adapters but it was so noisy we couldn’t make it work.

Would you believe I found an Amiga 600 on ebay that was a great price, but it was in Germany.. So I ordered it anyways on Dec 23rd thinking it should be in Italy when I got here, but I leave tomorrow and… No Amiga… 🙁

All I know from shipping is that it has been stuck in Italian customs for over a week now.

Europeans loved those things, especially the Germans who make new stuff for them.

So I’ve heard! It sounds to me that the microcomputer revolution in the 1980’s was far more exciting.. Such a shame that it relied on Commodore who’s backers relied on stock manipulation in order to be profitable…
