    Any Spectravideo users here?

Yes, the floppy controller slot is different from the rest, but to be honest i always thought the singlre slot expander could take both normal expansions and the floppy controller, but I never seen one of those...

    Battery replacement

    Re: Battery replacement ..Or just mount a supercap instead, and you dont have to modify the charging, and dont have to replace batterys.. I have done it on my A4000.. 2.2F if I remember correctly, can hold the time at least a week, never tried it for a longer time.

    How useful can an Amiga 1000 be now?

    Re: How useful can an Amiga 1000 be now? Probably not, maybe it just installs it in RAM and have some handler that redirects to RAM in WORM. ..Was like 10 years ago I used my A1000 the last time..

    How useful can an Amiga 1000 be now?

    Re: How useful can an Amiga 1000 be now? Why is the superkickdisk a problem ? I used a 3.1 superkickdisk on my A1000, adds a bit of time to the boot but who cares really.. I had a 2Mbyte RAM expansion on the side and ofcourse the 256k extra chip in the front.. Some day I will hook up my...
