Such a huge and fruitful library of titles to check out .. we’re committed (me and the boys) to learning more about the Amiga world through those files over the next few months.</div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif;font-size:small">I got the C64mini some time ago, but was disappointed by it being just a SoC with an emulator.
