I am ashamed to admit that I just don't use my Amiga much anymore. I
suppose Linux hacking has displaced that sector of my time. It's a pity;
they were *fun* machines. I spent a lot of time writing code and
fiddling with the hardware (my A1000 has a Rejuvinator, a Spirit Inboard,
a Starboard and a ROM switcher - OS1.3 and OS2.x, 5Mb RAM, SCSI - about
as far as you can take it without adding slots).
I no longer have my A4000 or A3000, but still have my A500 and A1000. The
A500 has a GVP HD+ with OS2.04 and 4meg of RAM while the A1000 has a Tecmar
T-disk (20meg) with 1.5meg RAM, OS 1.3 and a DigiView. I really liked the
A3000 but I managed to damage it to the point of constant instability
during one of it's many modifications. If it's perceived speed had been a
bit faster, it would've remained a really nice machine since the Spectrum
gave me plenty of true color video modes.
