Amiga Hardware News / Re: Delfina: The DSP makes the difference!

Thank you!!! I have both Delfina Lite (Zorro) and Delfina Flipper (ClockPort) and they behave differently!!! Unsetting the DELFINAMPEG on the machine with Flipper (delfina.library v19) works now again... I have been scratching my head for a while why the DelfMPEG-player worked and MHI with dmdev did not... THANK YOU!

Sadly I missed the whole C64. My dad bought us a Spectrum 48k.
Then we moved on to Atari STFM and then to Amiga.

I do own The C64. Just so I can play Short Circuit and a few others. As after hearing SID music and playing some of the games, I'm hooked on SID tunes.

Just ordered one. I started with an C16, and short after upgraded to an C64. Together with a friend and my dad we followed an Basic training for some weeks. 1 day every week in the evening. This was such a great time. For home use i managed to create applications in basic.  The c64 was my childhood computer.  Some years ago i bought 1 from a online website. But it thing died after a few months. It is old stuff.
So when i saw there was a new one coming, it was pretty clear and i ordered one.  The standard one is ordered. Since that one (the beige color) brings back memory's.

Amiga wasn't my first, but it's the first computer that you can sort of use for something other than playing games. And the novelty of playing 80s and early 90s games wear off after 5 minutes for me at least. I have various emulated amiga systems, some are faithful recreations of era specific setups, like whatever was possible at the time I owned one myself, and some are testing what can be achieved with whatever progress have been made since. It's just fun to fiddle around with. But no matter how cool the games were at the time, I just find them to be boring now compared to new games  :P

I would buy a "new" 100% compatible Amiga 1200, since maintaining old ones is a chore, but I never had a C64 so not really into that.

I think it’s more down to what was your first computer at the time. Those who had the Amiga first would argue that the C64 is not what they would want.
My first Commodore machine was the VIC-20. I never got to own a C64, the next machine after the VIC was the Speccy 16k, the. The A500 Amiga.
Only fairly recently I took the plunge bought a C128D, which now I see what the fuss was about.

Would I buy one of the new C64s? More likely not.

As for the debate about, “Well Amiga and Commodore are separate”. You can argue, that without Commodore buying the Amiga brand and distributing etc… Would it have been as popular?

A600GS & A1200NG / Re: AmiBench help and suggestions

Uhoh. Might be worth backing up the whole SD card before carrying out any major changes, then writing it back should it goes wrong!

I'm staying away from Shapeshifter for a while anyway

Exactly. I reinstalled all of my custom systems again after messing it up and backed up the whole sd card to an image :)
If you don't mind, please share some screenshots of your AmiBench system + what you use/install on it. I am in a process of making it as usable as possible so I need ideas :D Thanx
