Summary
After saving up in the Amiga Fund for a number of months, Dan Miller sold me this machine that had been sitting in the corner of the MVCS chem lab.
The machine proved to be of limited utility, but I certainly do miss it.

The first Amiga I ever owned. My first experience with this amazingly well-designed architecture was in 1992 when I worked on a DOE-funded animation project at New Mexico State University. Despite a low (by today's standards) clock rate, these machines boot up in under 20 seconds. They have really good video support, and were some of the first machines to bring multimedia to the masses. I bought this fine specimen in 1999 from my C++ teacher.
