Damn!! I would have been keen on that but I am giving a talk at a conference on that day

Mikey_C · 11 August 2005, 23:52

Shame, as it's starting to get way beyond our expectations, already we have a person who has booked a table for the bring and buy. Amongst his stuff to sell is a fully working towered PPC A1200 Amiga machine. Very Nice indeed. Bet he has his hands bitten off for that.

You guys are seriously planning to bring soldering irons up there, too?

In short, YES

r6stu · 12 August 2005, 14:34

My amiga 1200 is sticking out funny colours, its got a yellow sheen to it! it works from the RGB, but RF and composit its yellowy!

can that be fixed??

Mikey_C · 14 August 2005, 08:13

Sounds like a dry joint somewhere. Have you looked underneath?

We won't be fixing A1200's I don't think, but, ask around at http://www.amigaworld.net someone may meet you there and have a look at it for you. We are having an Amiga Medic area, you could try your luck there. Or alternatively, I am sure someone will have A1200's for sale (second hand) for little money in our bring and buy area.

Mikey_C · 19 August 2005, 09:50

Addition:-

I know of one user, Robert17 who has an A1200 to give away to anyone who promises to give it a good home, use it, and not sell it on at profit. He will be doing so at the show.

Doc Mindie · 26 August 2005, 15:34

I have a Blizzard 1230-mkIV (I think) that died on me......which is why I don't use the Amiga nowadays (what with OS3.9 I can't start it properly without the FastRAM).

Would people there be willing to have a look at it? I'm sure it's just some smaller stuff needed to fix it

Mikey_C · 08 September 2005, 13:58

Bring it down, I am sure someone will try and have a look at it for you.

- What have you got to lose? it's gonna be a nice day out anyhow.
