    To get retro stuff, especially Amiga, you can always use AmiBay, which is dedicated for selling/buying stuff.

    Real. Nothing beats the old pixel screen, the sound or the feel of an Amiga.

    Voted for both

    Although emulation is now straight forwrd and easy to use and to configure, you just couldn't beat the real thing. I remember spending hours in front of a twin tape deck copying the latest games my mates had for the C-64 was just to easy in them days. And always having to be carful not to knock the tv modulator out of the back of the 500 or the ram at the back of the zx81 pmsl. only thing i don't miss is the loading times. That used to drive me mad, especially when it was a tape and you had to turn the tape or even rewind it to certain position then the game would crash and you would have to start again.

    For me personally, emulation is not an option, you just cannot capture the experience in my opinion.
