There will only be a few days difference between stores. We aim to publish as accurate dates as possible on our webstore.

This post above is, IMO, very important to point out. There are so many rotten companies around that it is extremely wonderful to see Amigakit behave in this manner. Rather than rush to get every possible order they wait and attempt to be as accurate as they can. Even if I were to get my product a few days later from them than with another company (I don't think this would happen anyways) I would still rather stick with Amigakit. Anyone can open up shop for pre-orders but it takes class to show a little restraint.

AmigaKit are more Vorsprung durch Technik than Versalia

Only Audi has Vorsprung durch Technik

And i would buy also at Vesalia when they have the Accelerators two weeks later!

I love this shop and as long it exists i would buy my Amiga Hard and Software there!

Could we now please stop to discuss wich shop is the better one? I think every Amiga Shop is important, and they all do a fine job!

Exactly. I've never had anything but good service from both of them!

cosmiq · 25 November 2010, 21:44

I'm not even gonna say which one I chose, but I'm incredibly happy that I've just pushed the 'Confirm order' button

It's so cool that new hardware is being developed for such a nice piece of gear. I cant wait!!! Thumbs up for everyone who's making this possible, both creators as sellers!

Just thinking,

does the new A600 accelerator cards mean that the price of A600's are going to increase in value now

I think i have 16 available lol...(naw, not for sale)

A cool option is to mount a card reader in your vacant floppy slot, that's what I'd do anyway

Yes I'd say that's pretty much guaranteed to happen.

Yes, you can put an HxC there. I'm going to put one externally for my A1200 (the best clear enclosure you've seen) in my A1200, although I've thought to put both internally and booting games from the HxC. What I'm not sure is if you need to put the buttons for it somewhere outside too (I've bought it but still I don't have it).

cosmiq · 26 November 2010, 08:34

Any links to what exactly an HxC is?

coze · 26 November 2010, 09:00

floppy drive emulator

chiark · 26 November 2010, 09:52

Perhaps if someone would commit to a volume run the HxC wouldn't cost nearly as much as an accelerator... ?

cosmiq · 26 November 2010, 10:28

thx coze.

Looks very nice. But I'll leave this for the moment.. Lets see how far I get by using a network card and SD cards to get the amiga going. But I like the idea though...

gibs · 29 November 2010, 09:35

You'll find information on the HxC here : [ Show youtube player ]

I'm sure at 99% that it would fit and run with the ACA630

d0pefish · 29 November 2010, 11:10

I'm trying to figure out the best way to put flash storage in my A600 with the ACA630.

The ACA630 seems to have some holes in the top of it - are these tapped or just drilled? Can they be used to mount anything?

I know that 2.5" hard disks are too large for the case to close, but can any CF card adaptors be mounted up there?

Failing that, what's the nicest way to place a CF card adaptor inside an ACA630 A600 without just having an adaptor on a cable floating around freely inside the case?

Cheers

EDIT: Ah, seen Jens' example CF adaptor mounted on top on one of the earlier pages! Sorry for not noticing this earlier.

That's exactly what I had in mind, looks like a nice solution. Just need to find one for myself now!

fitzsteve · 29 November 2010, 12:01

Or you could see if Mika has anymore of his CF adapters, see attched:

(I can PM you his email as thats best contact)

d0pefish · 29 November 2010, 12:19

That's also very nice! Thankyou for the picture

Yes please, I may be asking him for one if they're not too expensive
