I can definitely account for 1.

You can definitely put me down for 0 because my parents didn't love me enough.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Put me down for 0 too because we were poor.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Write me for 0 too. Before my time

Put me down for one Amiga 1000 (which I still have with the 2MB expansion), I found a used one for sale and snagged it for $300 (before the A500 or any other models were released). I thought it was a great deal.

I had an A500 and the 40MB drive was as expensive as the computer.

I remember when me and a friend both had C64s and he got a 20MB HDD for it. He said "bring your floppies over and we'll swap software, I have tons of space now!" Big surprise, I had way more floppies than he had drive space. 😆 These days I don't mess around, I have around 105TB of storage with room for expansion as drives get cheaper.

FS-UAE integrates the most accurate Amiga emulation code available from WinUAE. FS-UAE emulates A500, A500+, A600, A1200, A1000, A3000 and A4000 models, but you can tweak the hardware configuration and create customized Amigas.

My Dad had one when we were growing up, so it’s definitely ≥2.

Ok, so they produced at least one, we know that for sure.
