Thanks!
No need for an Indivision ECS, the Picasso IV has got a built-in scandoubler/flickerfixer (not for all video modes, but games/demos e.g. do fine).
As for a Deneb, I see no real use for it. I use the PCMCIA<->CF adapter to transfer files, FAT formatted. It even supports hot-swapping.

What I *do* want to get though is a Zorro II sound card, or maybe the sound card module for my Picasso IV. Maybe a rev 6.4 A2000 motherboard as well... Mine is a rev 4.3 hacked to 5.x sorta, with some "not sure what I am doing" modifications.

8bitbubsy, have you tried any PCMCIA cards on your SCSI<->CF card reader, if they work I might look at getting one and attach it to my Emplant card, or GVP a4000-HC+8. That would be one way to get USB and Ethernet onto my 4000D.

Incredible machine. I love it. Could you do something perhaps with the Scsi Card reader bezel to fit better?

@The_Mutt
The SCSI Multicard reader isn't compatible with Ethernet PCMCIA NICS.
Tbh, only Mass Storage devices work on that reader.

Just saw this thread and firstly "wow"! That's some hefty setup/mod! Excuse my ignorance, but I once thought if you go too far with Amiga, you'll lose the backward compatibility with certain games... maybe this is just a figment of my imagination! Well done 8bitbubsy!

I haven't, but I don't think you can use non-storage drives on the PCMCIA slot of the SCSI<->CF adapter...

@all: Thanks

mfilos: Thanks matey, this A2000 is currently in pieces though! I'll put it back together when I feel like, I'm more into my A4000 these days.

Affff... totally drooling on your machines 8bitbusy... I've found a very decently priced stock A2000 for sale, but I'm wondering how much customizable this Miggy actually is. Looks ike there are many possible expansions, ain't there?

@8bitbubsy

Is there any chance you can re-upload the photos you've included in this thread? I'm working on my own A2000 and looking for "inspiration".

Thanks!
