Geek With Social Skills | Amiga World Presents: The Amiga Primer - VHS Tape 1991 @geekwithsocialskills | Uploaded August 2020 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
Amiga World Presents: Amiga Primer, an instructional tape that covers Amiga 500, 2000 and 3000 series computers and includes AmigaOS System 2 and AmigaVision.
For historical purposes I archived my copy of the Amiga World "Amiga Primer" VHS Tape to DVD and decided to upload it to my channel.
If you've ever wondered about expanding your experience with the Amiga computer, this video is for you. Whether you're a new Amiga owner or you've had the Amiga for several years, this video is bound to provide you with tips and insite on the functionality and use of the Amiga.
With over 80 minutes of information, glittering animation and step-by-step instructions, you'll become a wizard at using the Amiga workbench, the CLI, peripherals and Amiga utilites.
