Stop whining, in 1985 I paid $400 for 256 kilobyte RAM for my Amiga 1000, AND I WAS HAPPY!
You kids nowadays are spoiled, with 100,000 times more RAM if you have an average build with 16 GB RAM and 8 GB VRAM.
But the Amiga was still more fun than modern computers.
Is it me? Or is it the kids that are wrong?
Hmmm… 🤔 …
It must be the kids. 😋

GenerationAmiga.comApollo A6000 review: the ultimate 68K Amiga, rebuilt for the modern age In a retro-computing world increasingly dominated by emulation, software recreations, and nostalgic front ends running on commodity PCs, the Apollo A6000 stI was getting excited… until I read the price :/
$1200 USD.
Well, very on brand for Amiga to be $$$.
I think I’ll wait for the TheA1200 or failing that, buy an old clunker and stick a PiStorm into it.
