Ahhh! Nice! Did you pick it up recently? I always wanted to get a decent game pad to run CD32 emulation under OS3.X. I have all the necessary software. Maybe I missed it but, what OS are you planning on using?

LOL, I just missed your last edit before asking what OS you are going to use.....  ::)

I've had it for a while. I think I bought it a couple of years ago. Prices now are just outrageous on eBay.

Tell me about it! Some A500's going for $600.00+! Need an A1200 mobo? Fugetabuteit!

I may pick up this controller as well:

The Competition Pro is very similar to a Genesis pad. The one I linked above is more like a SNES pad.

Thanks for the link! I forgot about those. Probably 'cause I didn't wanna build it. I must admit though, I don't know my arse from Competition Pro or Genesis pad or SNES....  :-[

I'm currently running 3.9 installed from an ISO I found online years and years ago. Time to start supporting Amiga again so that's why I ordered 3.1.4.  :)

Mmmmm huh! Getting a little older and wiser! I bought a legit OS3.9 CD from AmigaKit about ten years ago and it wasn't much later than that a guy couldn't buy one any longer. Plz give us updates when you install OS3.1.4! I'm still on the fence - haven't ordered.

And welcome back to AMIGA!  ;D
