Odd Places / 2013-05-19 03:48:06

Thanks to its graphic and multi-task capabilities, the Amiga found its way in verious places and is still used/remembered fondly by its users. Here are some odd places where the Amiga could/can be found...

 

Grand Hotel Haeundae, Busan, Korea, in 2004

In 2004, I had the chance to attend the 11th Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference (APSEC 2004) in Busan, Korea. The conference took place at the Grand Hotel Haeundea (해운대그랜드호텔, 부산, 대한민국) and I stayed there for convenience... and what a surprise, when browsing the TV channels, to find the hotel advertisement with an Amiga pointer!

OpenSubtitles.org, in 2012

In 2012, I was looking for some subtitles on OpenSubtitles.org and, for some unknown reason, the Web application or the server crashed with a message that includes: "Guru Meditation"... Someone running this Web site must have some nostalgia!
