Title: Quick intro
Post by: phil(a1200net) on 10:42, 28 October 23
Hi all,

I'm Phil from A1200net.
My first ever computer was an 6128, gift from my mum for my 15th birthday.

I own two 6128, a ctm644 and a gt65 + around 200 floppies.
Really love the 3" floppies, don't ask me why.

Steve on this forum reached out to me and then I created my account :)

Glad to be here.

Seems there's a large amount of posts to read up on haha

Cheers

Hi Phil,
    welcome to a forum that talks less about recapping :D . I'll try to reference the A1200 now and again anyway, to make you feel at home. Although I have to admit, I'm more of an A600 fan.

Bryce.

Welcome Phil!

You will find plenty of stuff CPC on here to (waste|spend) your time with.

BTW the 3" disks have always had a special place in my heart as well.
They were so rare (and close to unaffordable) in the early 80s and then also very 
different from those widespread and boring 5,25" ones - almost like diamonds  :D

Welcome! I only have 12 discs for my 6128 but it seems to be just enough to make my experience fun :)

Consider joining us in the discord too! (just don't mind the ST chatter in the offtopic/other systems channel)
