International Amiga Day, May 31st - Page 3

andrewreader · 31 May 2016, 11:02

Thanks to this forum my A1200 is alive and well with a 4GB CF Card running WB3.1, EasyNet Pro and Ethernet via a wired PCMCIA card, and ACA1221 with the Maprom option giving me Kickstart 3.1. I have even browsed Aminet on it.

Using WinImage, I can keep my WinUAE and Real Amiga in Sync.

I am so rubbish at games, I can't even do 'Paperboy' on Easy Street. Oh the shame.

Oh and meeting the SW Amiga Group was really good too.

Happy Amiga Day.

Happy Amiga Day everyone!!!!, let's do this in style!!, have a beer on me

"Quote from Indie Retro News"
"It is time to celebrate ' International Amiga Day ' which is held every 31st May in celebration of Jay Miner who, according to Gyorgy Dragon, was the father of the Amiga and today is his birthday! Amiga owners and Emulation users across the globe will be once again playing original Amiga games, fixing the original hardware and even giving the old girl a new look with a spruced up paint job."

I will be spending my evening recapping and repairing an A600

I dropped my kid in school hoping to see anyone wearing an Amiga T-shirt or something, but nothing...

At home I installed some minor updates on my A3000 and tweeted about having it up and running again. Most games I tried so far on it fails to run, so I do not feel like trying any more games for a while.
