DIN and RS232 gang!
I'm 40 and my first machine was a commodore sx64. I'm not old lol.
Your old in social media terms. Anyone over 35 is a literal dinosaur. I'm in the same boat.
I’m 8-track tape in my first car old.
Damn you kids and your newfangled RS232 connectors.
Din & DE9 gang represent
Thank you for actually calling it DE9!
A DB9 would have been 9 pins in a shell the size of a DB25 port!

Proud ex owner of an amiga 500, and amiga 2000...
Blew up quite a few Denise chips, iirc, with parents cables.
The 2000 had 2.5 megabytes, the 500 only 1megabyte, and it was fucking wonderful.
I now have 64gb and I still wonder if it's enough
