When I'am happy they are happy. So...;) It is something that wife
can not mess with, but once I tryed to explain her but I think
that she was thinking about what to cook that day ;) Actualy, she
asked me if I can get some money for some little program that I made
:) After that I got more that 250 downloads of that program on
Aminet and I was pissed couse I didnt ask for donation of 1 euro.
That would almost cover costs of buying Amiga 1200. Sht! :)

Hi Sioux!

16 Nov 2019 01:42, from Sioux -> All:

This area is alive :) More people out there?

It seems like it ;)

I just hooked up my old A2000 again and played some games on it.

I did not have an amiga in my childhood.

Bought an Amiga 1200, 600 and 500 a few years back, when they were not that expensive.
Prices gone up quit a bit since then.

I use a CF card on the 1200 and a Gotek floppy emulator on the a500.

I feel ya on the prices these days. For what I use, WinUAE does the job. If I spent the money for what I am emulated, I can buy a new car with the same amount.

DL: As soon as I get the BBS running on OS/2-ArcaOS...am looking at setting up DL: VICE on the box & running C64 games. With 12 GB of DDR3 memory on that
DL: box...shouldn't have any problems at all.

Decent price is the issue. I have found good deals on C64 and C128 haerdware and jumped on them. Currently running a C-Net DS-2 on a real C64. I have a C128 coming soon that will house a C-Net128 BBS on real hardware. I am emulating the Amiga for my Amiga BBS and also emulating a C64 with Vice and running a second C-Net DS-2 BBS on Vice.
I challenge everyone to call the Real Hardware then the Emulated Hardware and see if you can tell the difference.

I have two desk top systems one of them is running the Amiga, Laptop and both of my servers are being hosted in St.Louis, MO. One is a really old machine and the other is a Icore 7 with 8 Cores, 64 GB of memory, two 4 TB harddrives and 1 GB internet connection. That counts me in.

Very true! Have found I've become my grandfather where I would come home from work...sit down in a comfortable chair & snooze off for a couple of hours. Then...I would be ready for everything else. Have been told I can get the
rest I need when I pass on...but will still be too busy haunting people. ;)

I'm sure something can be arranged. However you need to source your own power supply since the ones I have is for 220V with european sockets.

Any older system like that you would want to up-date the power supply.
I have on all my othe Commodore systems. If you get time, and you don't mind. Can you look into this?
