Actually, it's obvious to most they're old threads, but every now and then some are of more interest, use or fun that 'the current topics.' *shrug*

But, ok, # 106?

Hehe - I even once considered to buy an CSPPC for A2000 and fit it into the CPU slot of my Zorro bus expasion board for the A500 (Micronik) to have the worlds fastest A500.
Too sad they didn't make a production run of those and that just one or two prototypes exist...

No - I made my 1081 STEREO (by rebuilding the internal amplifier on a seperate hole-matrix board and fitting it into the 1081 together with a second speaker)

I have relatives living in Braunschweig - and yes, they live a stone's throw away from the former Commodore plant.
Have been there countless times during my childhood, but I'm not planning to visit the other locations...

Yes, of course! And it comes with 15 W sinus, my trusty old McIntosh valve amp...

I hope I can clarify this once and for all in everyones mind:


AMIGA does NOT mean GIRLFRIEND in spanish............................it means FEMALE FRIEND


Just as AMIGO means male friend (NOT BOYFRIEND) Amiga = Friend (female)



(Yes I know sometimes here in USA women call their female friends "Girlfriends) and in that context it would mean "Mi Amigas) or my Amigas, But Amiga is literally translated FRIEND (Female)


So Amiga is the perfect name for a Computer like ours................just as you would give you car a female name and then call her "She" when refering to it, when speaking of the Amiga, one can say "She is My Amiga"

So far i havent seen one game on PS3 that looks better than whats on xbox 360...
in fact all of the console game comparisons i read say the PS3 version is inferior...and thats what matters....its like looking at a cars horsepower figures and 0-60mph figures...they dont mean crap when it goes out on the track...and the side by side console game comparisons are "out on the track".

hate to give points to microsoft, but its PS3 that sound like ST owners... If i remember the amiga was the superior one?
