It can be used as a simple sequencer for some pretty interesting sounds and samples. It even had a voice simulator and could be made to sing (after a fashion.) There's a fan base for every old computer there ever was, I would suspect.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and I once used a friend's Amiga to draw an entire comic book, a'la Shatter.<BR/><BR/>Remember Shatter? I remember thinking that was the coolest comic book ever when it came out. I saw it recentlhile crude to modern eyes, I still think it worthy.Allen Gladfelterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02641680976213569969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15085631.post-1146111840117065932006-04-26T21:24:00.000-07:002006-04-26T21:24:00.000-07:00"A dedicated fan base using them"?

They must be a bunch of nostalgic techno-geeks mooning over the good old days of 16 bit video games.Don Hudsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04525060094282561242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15085631.post-1146106065263049512006-04-26T19:47:00.000-07:002006-04-26T19:47:00.000-07:00Oh, I'm sure we didn't have a network.

There was only one Amiga and nothing else to network it too. <BR/><BR/>I don't recollect if we had a scanner either, but we definitely could import video images. I think it was straight in from S-video, or does that sound totally impossible? The old memory is pretty vague.Marie Javinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12632729774717864231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15085631.post-1146081657224408652006-04-26T13:00:00.000-07:002006-04-26T13:00:00.000-07:00Marie, Did you have a scanner or some way to impor...Marie, Did you have a scanner or some way to import images?

Of course, it's nothing compared to today's possibilities... and I don't remember the memory size or how fast it was. Oh and this would have been prior to 1988 that I saw my first Amiga. Somewhere between '86-'87.Marie Javinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12632729774717864231noreply@blogger.com
