| While watching a documentary about the Russian footbal team of Euro '88 I spotted the following:

If i'm not wrong this is an Amiga 1000 !
I think the man in the picture is the famous Russian coach Lobanovskyi, who used computers to gather info/statistics about players, which is quite common nowadays, but way ahead of it's time in those days.

something about that photo makes that a1000 look modern.... not old and clunky maybe its because its b&w? _________________ Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes hurtling down the highway.

My A1000s don't look old and clunky but very modern i still find it a great design even today! It's not fanboyism, i think it for real
