Hello and greetings from the Canadian west coast!
I'm not new to Amiga computers, I've had an Amiga since December of 1985, the A1000. I recently decided I wanted to get back to using them after a hiatus so I began my Amiga restoration project. I also wanted to archive my floppy disk collection before they deteriorate and to educate my daughter (who is
that there are more to computers than PC's, Apples, tablets, and smart phones. Right now I have two A3000's, my original that I've had since early '91, that is now in a tower case, and my second that was given to me by a friend who wanted it to go to a good home.
This is how my systems are set up at the moment.
- Amiga 3000D (rev 8.9) towerized into an Elbox Mirage3000 case
- Amiga 1010 external floppy
- 3.1 ROM
- Cyberstorm MKII 060/50 with 128MB
(I have the SCSI module but haven't been able to get it to work. Yes, I've done the INT2 fix but machine still won't boot with the module on)
- 16MB with a ZIP to SIMM converter
- WD Rev 08 SCSI chip
- Buster 11
- 2MB Chip
- VLab Zorro card

Me, I do system and application design and architecture, system admin across our AIX and Solaris servers, database design and admin, senior lead C developer, and if needed COBOL (yes, COBOL is still used), along with a bunch of other stuff that would bore the socks off most people.
Cheers,
Darin.
