[Yeah it doesn't happen often enuf, I was shocked when last week my lovely wife let me buy a new robot vac as apparently the current one was too loud to run at night with the kids in bed asleep.Quote:

Got an A601, was untested, first thing I done was skin it! Lucky no battery leakage and it's working like a charm - 1mb of course taking my A600 up to 2mb Chip Ram
Also bagged an ACA620 a Play Expo, this little A600 will be my event and meeting machine to be used and abused :D
Attachment 78252Attachment 78253
I also got a cheap 'faulty' A600 from eBay, that also works great (except probably the FDD is faulty) and my other A601 which is only 512k will be with that as a useful spare, it even came with 37,350 Rom!
Attachment 78251
The case is clean & white so I'll re-case the main A600, all in all lots of WIN \o/
These days I really appreciate the simple things :)
I love getting new hardware :lol:
My newest editions are the Rapid Road USB for the X-Surf-100 and a KCS Power PC Board Plus.
Rapid Road is all set up and now its' time to move onto getting my hard drive repartitioned so I can have a DOS partition for the Power PC Board.
Is this a turboboard incl. IDE CF port for the A500 ?
Looks like Kippers 8mb with IDE. The KCS Board is a chip Ram upgrade and PC emulator:Quote:

Gotta love LED: Bulb lifetime: ~up to 20,000 hours
So sick of replacing bulbs at work or worse yet, have them explode on me and release the lovely mercury gas in the room ;)
Can't really go wrong for that price John .... MmmmM now you got me thinking about it .. lol
This one actually looks like a bit higher specs (I am not a projector expert, I just replace bulbs .. lol): http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hot-sale-Min...item2ed882255e
Wow, nice projector, and nice price, too!
A few years ago, you really needed an unrealistically dark room to get much out of the smaller projectors. Has that changed now? And, if so, in practical terms, how dark does it need to be?
Same here, and I know I really don't need one. :lol:Quote:

Nice one djos, a great display :D
Cheers, I pick it up from the college I bought from on Monday, can't wait to see what 800 lines and rock solid picture look like with my Amiga's. I already have the bnc to scart cable so all set ☺Quote:

Just got back from a 250 mile round trip to collect a few retro goodies. When I arrived to collect them there appeared to be more than I had realised. Good job I went on my own as the car was full! I'll upload pics as and when I open the boxes.... I do know there is some very special stuff in them boxes though :-)

250 miles for some grapes :P
Couriosity is getting the better of me.. so far have found Crash (Speccy) issues 2 to 36. Those boxes of grapes are all games....
Happy hunting! It's always great fun unpacking a large haul :)
Nice, are you going to mount it internally?Quote:

Nagh I'm just going to leave the cable hanging out gangster style :DQuote:

It's really useful though just for loading up some CD's and seems to work really well. I will use it for booting some CD32 Games and Amiga CD stuff.
Nice :D
I got a HP Compaq NX9005 laptop with WinXP licence. This is a perfect laptop for my needs as it has:
- a floppy drive for writing images back to floppy
- serial port for connecting OBD interface and ADTPro
- parallel port for connecting Willem EPROM burner
- DVD drive so that I can install the Saab Workshop manual
- both ethernet and wireless LAN adapter
This will replace My old Compaq Armada 1700, which was good but had little too low specs and only a CD-ROM drive.

Well. My hugely upgraded Amstrad 464plus is back!http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14...211c82ae9e.jpg
Looks a beaut mate. Any more photos of the mods or are they all hidden? Can't wait until TC does similar to mine :thumbsup:
Ok then, since I has the case off again this evening to fit the reset button, here's the beautiful socked mounted mods.Quote:

Mitsumi disk drive / usb card reader combo & Stedy's floppy adapter, perfect for my A4000/RapidRoad (if it ever arrives...)
http://i1342.photobucket.com/albums/...ps5fc2d85f.jpg
A couple of goodies for my A4k :D
I went for the Clockport version of the RapidRoad USB so that I can use it also in my A1200 if I wish.

wheres the rest of the network card mate :)
It's a straight 464+ to 6128+ upgrade, but with both A: and B: wired to the rear port and an ABBA switch to swap them. I posted what I did over on the CPCWiki.Quote:

Ordered today, not arrived yet. An apple Mac mini g4 1.5ghz, silent upgrade. I need a mouse and keyboard but I hope it will become a morphos dreambox. I believe the Mac Bluetooth wireless keyboard works with morphos, can anyone confirm?
I got an Archos Gamepad 2, today. :thumbsup:

Fantastic bit of kit.
At last I have EOS for C64 :)
Didn't check it yet but I think it will work. If not there is always downloaded version ;)

Got a Dell U2410 monitor today. VGA, 2x DVI, HDMI, Display Port, composite, RGB...very cool. :)
I plugged my A1200 (with VGA adapter) into the VGA port and it works without scandoubler/flicker fixer. However, it's not perfect. The text looks kind of shoddy and there are some artifacts onscreen. That said, I'd highly recommend this as an excellent monitor choice instead of buying a SD/FF since it has so much expansion and IPS screen quality, unless of course you want to buy something specifically for an Amiga.
So totally random impulse buy, I bought a Gotek Floppy Emulator :D
knocked this out, but cant test it till I complete my GBA1000 motherboard build. Converts 5pin DIN Amiga 2000 keyboard to the RJ11/RJ22 pinout of the Amiga 1000

I bought a couple of faulty Intellivisions from Tajmaster a couple weeks ago. My game finally arrived today so i took a look at them and got one working. The RF picture is really bad though. So off i went in search of an Composite mod. I found a board via ebay but then discovered there was something called a ZOE RGB board with scart cable.
So a quick check on ebay and to my surprise there was one listed. I hit the buy it now and now i'm waiting for it to arrive.
Look out for install pics once it arrives

I got this non working A4000D yesterday from a friend. The mainboard is corroded badly by the damned battery. I believe it is beyond repair. The system seems to power on but there's no screen, just black screen. At least the power supply is working fine and probably the daughterboard should be working fine too. It has 1mb ram, 2484mb Western Digital hard disk, dvd rom, floopy and cpu 68040/25. No mouse and no keyboard.
Attachment 78956
68040 is missing the fan and the heatsink and it's not working. It has no obvious damage and I don't know if this cpu necessary needs the system to have much ram.
