New sets should arrive to kickstarter/indiegogo backers towards the end of the year I reckon- we've been waiting around 3 years due to the pandemic

Bump! Still looking!

Hi all, I'm looking for a SCSI adapter board for my Blizzard 1230 mkIV, hopefully one of you lovely people have one lying around! I'd also be interested in a 64 or 128Mb SIMM to go with it if possible. TIA Matt

Welcome! My favourite thing is the sound of the drive clicking, hope you have plenty of fun!

Hi all, I’ve been trying to get my Surf Squirrel running with no success- I’m pretty sure it’s not working, so would like to get another one that I can be sure is working properly. Just want to get my CD and Zip drives working! I would also consider an Apollo 1240/60 interface, although these...

Interested if there are any left

It does become quite addictive once you get started! I thought I would be happy with my GVP 030 accelerator, but then I got the itch for a Blizzard and justified the price to myself when one came up on eBay. But then a 1260 came up last week and the itch returned... Hopefully that’s it...

Some great stuff! I started much like you (and am also called Matt!), and the bug has ended up with me buying an Apollo 1260 from here, after getting through successive 1230s (still tempted to keep hold of the Blizzard board as that's what I had back in the day!). I'd suggest giving WinUAE a go...

Would love to see one of these running, have fun!

Hi all, I’ve managed to get my hands on a Blizzard 1230 IV with 8Mb- while this speeds things up nicely, I’d love to get closer to the 128Mb if possible. eBay doesn’t seem to show much, with 16Mb being my best option for low-profile SIMMs. Any help finding some higher capacity SIMMs which...

Top news for you, hopefully you’ll all be back on track in no time at all

I’ve just bought myself a stock A1200 and am looking to upgrade to an 030. Ideally I’d like a Blizzard 1230 card, but other makes considered. Let me know what you’ve got! TIA

Hi all. I’m Matt, 37 from the UK. I’ve just bought myself an A1200 as a hobby machine as I had one when I was a teenager. Seeing the bootup screen and hearing the drive click made me so happy! I’m looking to upgrade to an 030 soon (I had the Blizzard mkIV back in the day) and then the CF hard...
