NIce blog update.
Hope your holiday has gone well. Any word on your X1000 yet?
Thank you, I had a great holiday in Japan. It was good to unplug - I really needed it.
I have been very busy back at work and also updating my interesting trains blog this week with my Japan trip train travels - please feel free to check it out if interested!
http://interestingtrains.blogspot.com.au When done with those blog entries (they take a lot of time) I will turn my attention back to the Amiga blog again. I am really looking forward to attending the Adelaide Amiga meeting next month!
Regarding my X1000, the CPU was confirmed damaged by Varisys just over a month ago. Most likely it was damaged by the unexpected power cut during the failed firmware update which I covered in my blog. It is an unlucky and sad situation for me.
My X1000 is now over 3 years old and is out of warranty unfortunately, and putting a replacement CPU in it is close to the cost of a new X1000, so I have been recommended to buy a new replacement X1000 instead, which gives me a new warranty again also.
I am working on this replacement with A-EON at the moment, and Trevor is being very helpful and generous to get this sorted out for me. I am very grateful for this, and I have paid for the replacement this week.
Hopefully I will get this system shipped to me in AU soon, and have my X1000 again to blog about the latest developments! Can't wait to get it! :-)
Regards,
