    I got lucky - my first A1200!

    Nice! I make sure everyone at work knows I'm an Amiga dork, including a Kickstart logo avatar in Slack, Gitlab and all the Atlassian tools. Alas, no luck!

    She's Alive.. She's Alive...

    I've got a similar set up to this: A2000 with GVP 030, DKB MegaChip and A2320. It's a very nice machine :) I'm using a SCSI2SD attached to the GVP card. It's really easy to set up and use. It's also fast and silent. It makes transferring files to the machine very easy. I've also got a SCSI...

    Drawing Tablet

    Thanks for the suggestion Jap, but I suspect that's not going to work for me. Cheers, Andrew.

    Drawing Tablet

    I'm looking for an Amiga compatible drawing tablet like an Aiptek 6000 or Wacom ArtPad, probably something compatible with http://aminet.net/package/driver/input/FormAldiHyd. Ideally it'd be located in Australia like me but I could be flexible with postage :)

    Commodore 486 PC! Commodore 486 PC! I picked up this old thing because it was dirt cheap and if I squint I can pretend I still have an Amiga 4000! Inside it's a 386sx motherboard with a Cyrix 486slc CPU and on board VGA. A riser card gives it 5 ISA slots. Unfortunately I haven't been able...

    Hi Chriss, Thanks for the offer but I managed to find one locally a few weeks ago. Cheers, Andrew

    Sweet! Hopefully I'll get time to finish building an adaptor for an A2000 keyboard for it in the next couple of days.

    Post here everytime you get something new!

    I picked up an Amiga 1000 on Sunday. I'm pretty sure it's the first time I've ever seen one in person. Unfortunately there was no keyboard, mouse or disks with it: After a few tries I managed to get it to accept a kickstart disk and it boots quite happily. It was pretty grubby and there's...

    I'm going to Microsoft's Ignite Australia conference this week so I thought I'd show my true colours... The shirts are new and the prints DIY.

    Closed Amiga 2000 Accelerator

    I'm on the hunt for an accelerator card for my Amiga 2000. I'd be interested in an 020 or 030 card. Unfortunately anything better than that is out of my price range. Please let me know if you've got one you're willing to part with and post to Perth, Australia. Cheers, Andrew

    My A4000 has arrived

    I had the rubber feet of my A1200 melt and make a huge mess. It's not too hard to clean up all the goo and put new feet on.

    Deluxe Paint - Just for fun

    That's great, I've recently got my 7 year old daughter playing with Deluxe Paint and she loved your video.

    Fixing A Tank Mouse

    A couple of months ago I picked up an Amiga 2000. There's been a few issues with it that I'm slowly working through such as a leaking battery and a dead 40MB HD. Today I decided to try fixing the right button of the mouse: The left button and motion work fine but right button doesn't...

    Post here everytime you get something new!

    This has been a pretty awesome week for my recently rekindled interest in all things Amiga! First, I won an A2000 in a local Facebook auction group that specializes in things people put out on the side of the road for collection by the council: ("That's your birthday present, you realise?"...

    Long time lurker, first time poster

    Hi, I'm Andrew and I live in Perth, Australia. I had various Amigas through my teenage years, including an A4000 that I now miss very much, and have recently dug out and cleaned up the only one I still have, an A1200. I'm interested in building up a bit of a collection but geography, a mortgage...
