Ahhhh. I was thinking it wasn't available there anymore at all. Good to know you can still obtain it.

FINALLY!
After 12 long years, I am once again an Amiga owner!
Sold to me by a certain fitzsteve at Revival, a fantastic looking C= A1200!
She has 3.1 KS and WB, a CF adapter and some nice new gold plated A/V ports. Aside from that she's a bog standard 020/2MB chip RAM machine.
However that will be rectified shortly!
The only concern I have is with the PSU. It gives an uncomfortable buzzing sound whilst it's on!
Welcome back then! :) :thumbsup:Quote:

Turbo everdrive arrived :)
Now I need my PCe to arrive
right, quite a bit here to show for this weeks pick ups:
jap N64 boxed and delivered from japan too (only took a week and a half to arrive too)
http://i1339.photobucket.com/albums/...ps17816eef.jpg
now waiting for the other 2 packages to arrive with the pc engine, games and n64 power pack
these were from revival: most of these were free from generous fellow forum members (chocklo, lostruin, cauterize), a competition prize from revival, a couple of things from the lucky dip bin, some trades from amibay members etc I think my total spend on games was around £xx in total. Spent more on 3 pints with those bar prices!!
A link beadsprite for the missus :-)
