Amiga 2000 Owner

[cablemirc]

someone threw it away!
i went and dug it out. lol. i bought a new power supply for it on ebay, and by chance it boots!

i am now located at the screen with a big rainbow checkmark and an animated floppy disk.. it says..

3.00 ROM 39.186
Copyright 1985-1992

i used to own an Amiga 500.. it was fun!
i'd like to continue to breathe new life into her....

what's next?
what can i do with her?

i looked again, it's not a 2000, it's an A1200
(i used to have the 500 when the 2000 was "the hot one to have", so i guess i just got mixed up)
it's got a Seagate ST9096A 85.3 MB
it's got the 3.0 ROM chips in it
a motorola processor on an expansion board with an additonal memory slot, a realtime clock, a BIOS battery and a copyright notice that reads: 1993, Microbiotics, Inc, Made in USA
next to the processor itself, written on the board it says MC68881/2.

i just noticed the big letters MBX 1200z under the expanded memory...

thanks art. if my current hobby is any indication, i'll be around for quite a while.

i own a (now) "mint" 1991 Mazda Protege that i literally brought back from beyond the grave. lol.

the hard drive is fully connected.
what is the max default hard drive i can use?
anyone have a decent one for sale?
and of course, the workbench disks.

i'm in san diego, california. interested in the 4 gigger, most likely.

accompanying the amiga was a steering wheel and foot pedals for racing games.

and of course i want it on the net. do they make ethernet for amiga, and can amiga network with windows based machines?

oh, and that motorla processor? expansion bay. memory is in the expansion slot.


and the avalanche?? i've ridden down this cash-flow mountain with my other hobby... i'm just looking for the lift to get to the top here again.. it's a fun ride!
