Same reaction, generally, despite absolutely loving my Amigas and doing more on them than the C64s/etc.
I do remember loving "developing against the OS", the ROM Kernel Manuals, SAS/C and whatever assembler I was using, CygnusEd, and some of the demo scene stuff. And these trigger responses, but just seeing Workbench leaves me numb, unlike the C64 "welcome screen".
- badpun 4y agoI, on the other hand, remember it vividly. I even remember what kind of wallpaper I had set in the background (tiling 8-color marble-like thing). I remember playing with loading image files, via the built-in Amiga Datatype plugins (was that the name for this mechanism?). I remember 1024x768 JPEGs took around 30 seconds to load, while similar GIFs loaded under 15 seconds. Both results were from hard-drive (not a floppy), so mostly CPU-bound.
