Who owns a real Amiga ? - Page 33

AmigaWorld · 16 October 2011, 19:29

I own two A1200 computers. One A1200 is in a D-Box Tower. Preordered the new Mediator 1200TX PCI Busboard from Amigakit. Can't wait to get it.

BarryB · 07 November 2011, 23:15

I started with a A500 when they first came out, traded a 1mb expanded 520ST for it

Then, when the A1200 came out, I traded my A500 in for it and to this day I've still got that A1200 and it still works. Put an 80mb (yes MB) HDD in it and then bought OS 3.5 when it came out and installed that. Now looking to 'towerise' it but totally lost on what's available and the best way to go! I know Amigakit have a tower in the works so looks like going there, but what else I'll need is a bit vague!!

I've currently got an unmodified A600 so have some building up to do. This was bought as a present and came with a copy of Zool and Zeewolf.

I own two CD32's, one with the heavy power supply, one light, one with an FMV module and one without =P
My first console ever ^^
Also, hi everyone, I'm new here =)

jeff b00toNic · 17 November 2011, 18:48

I own a 500 since 1989 and my brother a 600HD since 1992. Had a 1200 with a reset bug fixed it and sold it for a good price.

scifi · 17 November 2011, 21:15

I picked a nice thread to return to the Amiga world after a long, long time...
I own an Amiga 500, Kickstart 1.2, expanded to 1MB...
Hail to all the Amiga fans!

18 November 2011, 20:31

I have a real WinUAE; it even has Toni Wilen signature under the cover!

HOL2001 · 18 November 2011, 22:56

I am really astonished that per our poll more people own an Amiga 1500 than a CDTV.

05 December 2011, 23:08

had the humble A500 about a year after it was released, second hand cost my mother about £400 and was xmas and bday combined!

then purchased a CDTV for about £350 with black keyboard, floppy and mouse.
-still have the CDTV!

I own two A500s one i had since 1989 and a A600 and a A1200 that a got about a year ago it only took me 16+ years to finaly get a AGA Amiga

rue · 09 December 2011, 18:33

First post! Another A1200 for the poll here. Well two, but ones a bit dead

_ThEcRoW · 09 December 2011, 20:22

At the moment have a working 1200 and a 500 debating between life and death. The other night i was trying to show my brother several games and it didn't boot. It flashed a blue screen(custom chips fault code i think), then blank screen. Maybe it get repaired if i have time, if not, the fpga replay will take care of it remains proudly.

rampartsagain · 27 May 2012, 02:15

LocalH · 27 May 2012, 02:27

A2000 (with GVP 25MHz 030+SCSI-2 card, 100MB HDD and 2MB 32-bit RAM, Microbotics 8-UP card with 1MB RAM, and 1MB chip RAM, plus SuperGen 2000S)
A3000 (4MB RAM although only the 1MB chip RAM works, 100MB HDD)

tero · 27 May 2012, 13:23

A1200 (Vanilla + 2Gb SD), with ClassicWB + WHDGames. Many years ago i was full of hope and bought wb3.9 which never ran on real hw

Is Amithlon a real Amiga?
Oh and somewhere in a box i still have 2 broken a500.

sneeker · 28 May 2012, 01:08

An A1200 with a Viper 030/28, 18mb and 4gb compact flash.

An A500 with some ram that I have basicall turned on and looked at the kick1.3 screen and then turned it off, has a leaky battery though that I need to remove
And an A500+ has a ram upgrade in it but tbh, Ive not done anything with it yet.
Theres also a hard disk for a 500 and a sidecar ram expansion.. Should try them all soon really.

Originally back in the day, An A500, 1mb, kickstart 1.3.2 and an external drive.
