Yeah I certainly messed about with it! I used my Amiga in my first year at uni. It was running Perl. I switch to a PC the year after and promptly dual booted Linux since I’ve always hated windows.

It's not for the 2600 specifically. Most home computers around at the time (many of which were still being used in 1992 before we all switched to MS-DOS/Windows PCs) had the same joystick port as the 2600, so this would more likely be used on systems like the Atari ST and Amiga.

Eu dando umas aulas para uma amiga. 😅
Mandei pra ela um app de espelhamento do celular pro computador e um de captura de tela melhor do que o do próprio Windows. 🤭🤭
Não precisa baixar nenhum app no celular para poder espelhar.

the best thing about apples magic keyboard is that despite it retaining the ability to function wired when used with a non bluetooth enabled computer running a real operating system like macos windows amiga or bsd, you can still turn it off with the power switch instead of having to unplug it […]

C64 in Amiga in Windows .. in Windows? 🤔
So here's to that time I realised I could take Windows 10 PC, load up the virtual Windows XP machine in VirtualBox, boot the virtual Workbench 3.1 Amiga in WinUAE, and play High Noon on the virtual C64 in Magic64.
I enjoyed that. 😊

The Amiga uses ISO 8859-1 character encoding, the most widely used single-byte encoding, esp. the Windows-1252 variant, which adds the Euro symbol and other additions from ISO 8859-15. That covers a lot of languages that use the Latin alphabet.
RISC OS uses ISO 8859-1… with extensions for Welsh.

Dan Wood has done some good videos on the Archimedes and on RISC OS on Raspberry Pi. He's British so he actually has experience with using Acorn computers. youtu.be/Z1osEX6eYHE?...

Was a big fan of the Amiga version in the 90s, but this current iteration actually makes using Windows enjoyable. After seeing Shane R. Monroe's videos on it, I couldn't resist, picked it up & never looked back.

Donc oui, Windows était banal à l'époque et beaucoup moins avancé que ses concurrents.

the weird thing is that apple is unix based BUT it borrows a few things from the commodore amiga AND the company hates programmers for some reason/anyone who likes to repair stuff in general. so you cant do the things youre used to doing with linux OR windows or really anything else
