| 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. Last edited by borchen on 07-Jun-2012 at 11:42 PM.

Yap, you can definitely see the checkmark logo to the left and the case layout matches the A1000:) _________________

something about that photo makes that a1000 look modern.... not old and clunky
maybe its because its b&w? _________________

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

Good catch!
Too bad I never owned an A1000. I always thought it had an awesome design.

I know this is probably a stupid question, but someone had to ask.
