Great video, thanks . Sadly my business use of Amiga computers ended in the first few months of 1990. Within weeks I was thrust into the world of PC consulting which turned into an IT carer ending in 2018 when I retired. I still have my A1000, A500 and A2000 though my kids and father in law used them throughout the 90's. To bad this organizer wasn't out in the mid to late 80's cause I would have used it daily. Now that I'm retired I've been playing with my Amiga's and emulators.
Digita Organizer was good all around but lacked child to parent (company to customer) hierarchy. Organizer was very general purpose and I used it for a year or so. Timetracker was a finite (so many hours in the day) hour approach. OnTheBall had the best marketing features. The biggest limitation of Organizer and OTB is limited field sizes, TT didn't have limitations but it was a nightmare to use and align to someone. The best light CRM/Organizer goes to PolyOrga (yes, I know it's MorphOS (close enough to AmigaOS for me and very useable for modern uses)). PolyOrga has linking to give unlimited dimensions, no size limitations, and group/keeping data where it belongs is all unique to it. The interface was inspired by Organizer for sure!
Thank you so much for this video series! I really enjoy it so much, and almost every time I watch a new part, I discover something new to try out on my machine. Sincere greetings!
Loving it! Need to get it! BTW, could you please tell me how to get this workbench look? That small font - what font is it? And what resolution..? Is that from Amiga OS or.. Video for this setup would be great mate. I see it everywhere and I cant find video to this specific look and feel.
Look for my video named. Transform AmigaOS 3.2 with BestClassicWB. You need AmigaOS 3.2 which you can purchase from Hyperion. It's the latest Workbench version.
Is there a site with the latest versions of launch-ready WHDLoad games? WHDownload is seemingly very outdated in that respect. In fact the current-latest version of WHDLoad won't even detect some of those old versions of games. I thankfully found a collection from 2019 on Internet Archive featuring more recent versions of games but they're still not the very latest versions. All of the more recent sources for the latest versions of WHDLoad games that I've found only have 'HD installer' versions available. Isn't there any site with the latest versions in a launch-ready state?
@@MikeyGRetro Thanks for the reply. I guess I'll need to research how to set up a FTP then. The Amiga community sure seems to want to make it difficult for newcomers by making us jump through hoops to do things that mostly every other retro scene makes simple.
Did you use Digita Organiser back in the day? If so, leave a comment

Sincere greetings!
Thank you :-) Glad you are enjoying them.
Thank you, Mikey!
Thank you :-)
Thanks Mike. I never knew of this. Back in the day it would have been quite useful. I wonder how many people still have their old filofaxes.
I still have my physical Digital organiser from Packard Bell, with the serial connection cable that this could sync to!
Have to try this...

Glad you realise that nobody is seriously going to use an Amiga in this day and age for anything other than a nostalgia trip. Nice video though :)
lol it probably would be nostalgia trip, but with other productive software out there I think it's still make the old machine useful. :-)
@@imalebowski Nice one :)
Does anyone remember Appetizer?
No, but looks like a mixture of creative tools. Was it good? Might check it out later.
@@MikeyGRetro It was superb! An office pack for an Amiga.
@@mkrleza Never heard of it. Sounds like worth looking into!
