Pain in the arse...

My Amiga 500 came the other day BUT the guy forgot to send the mouse with it! So essentially I can't really use it until he sends it. I dropped him a line about it and he's sending a couple more games with it as a kind of sweetener so that's not so bad I suppose, but still I'd like to have been playing with it by now!

Back to uni tomorrow, I'll pop in to a couple of shops before my lecture I expect, hopefully I'll come back with some goods to post here ;)

Disappointment

Popped into Edinburgh yesterday for a spot of shopping, had absolutely no luck though. I was looking for old computer games (surprise surprise) and all that I found was over-priced, rubbish, or both.

I was in one shop (well I say shop, it was more a room containing piles of electronics and records, I could barely even get the door open) and saw an Amiga 500 hanging (quite literally) off one of the shelves. No games or box or anything, but I thought I'd ask about it anyway. £80! Like fuck anybody in their right mind would pay such a price. £60 he said, though, if you're willing to forgo the power supply... Obviously I left in good haste.

All I could turn up in all the shops I was in was sports titles, for the most part, and not even good ones. Really not what I'm interested in buying...

So, obviously, when I got home I got onto eBay and bid on a shitload of stuff there. I have a disease :(
