Nice.... if you can verify (like you have time...) that solution works maybe I should just get one of yours. As long as I can get satisfactory results, I don't care what it is. (Sorry no smileys - now I'm on the machine with no Java Script). I move around a lot in the house.

I sold mine already, otherwise I'd definitely offer one up for ya!  :(

 Wow! You sold both of those already? Both to the same person? Or did you eBay? Congrats on your sale! I know you were trying to recoup what you could get.

Time flies, man!  This was months ago.  I forget, I think I put one on Amibay and one on Ebay.  On to better homes, I hope!  :)

One of these days, one of these days, I tell ya, I'm gonna be in the market for an '060 board for my main A2000....  ;)

 Ahhhh, ya know, the more I use my Bliz the more I love it! If you EVER see a non-upgraded 040 (they're all really 060 boards) going cheap GRAB IT! Then, send it to me, and I'll upgrade it for ya! Why you ask? Cause I still have 97 more of those SMD diodes on hand! HAHAHAHAHA! Seriously, grab one if you can... what an amazing board. The freakin SCSI bus is amazing! Plus, any damn 32MB simm you throw at it works!

I need another 060 for my A2000, 030@40 is not even close. I have a Spectrum and PicIV, now to get an Indivision and see if it can pass thru the PicIV somehow. Would be awesome.

HA!  :lol:

I will, man.  But "going cheap"?  You know better than that!  I LOL'd at "97 resistors left".  ;)

Biggest bottleneck with my GeForce '040 is the SCSI bus, now that I've finally got a reasonable amount of RAM in the thing.  Still, it's quite snappy with PFS and all the other mods I've done to it.  Shame the GVP can't be upgraded to an '060!  :(

As Tim Allen said, "More power!!!"  :)

Now that we've gotten this thread completely off-topic, you should try that latest 68k 3.4 DEV build of NetSurf.  It's crash-city for me, but maybe you'd have better luck?  :lol:
Yup,  Good info but wrong thread ;-(

Honestly, who cares if a 30+ year old Amiga is still in service.


I do.

The movie that was taken from, Iron Sky, is SO much funnier.
I can't wait to see Blondi in the sequel.
