I am just a user of the Amiga (Monopoly and other games for my older kids, a simple spelling program, SpeechToy to amuse my 3-year-old, and some use as a terminal talking to the VAX at work).

Even with my limited experience with the Amiga, it has become quite obvious that 512K memory and two disk drives are essential for any reasonable use! > . . . > And, in case you missed it before--wanna sell me yours?
