Same! Best programming I ever did was on the ST and Amiga.

Any reason why? I tried to do a bit on our C64 as a kid but . . . well, it's amazing I wound up as a developer after that experience.

You had to be very careful programming the Amiga. There was multitasking, but no memory protection. If you wrote to a bad address (like a null pointer), you were staring at a "Guru Meditation" screen followed by a reboot.
