3> SCA
4> 80000004
5> 7.14
6> 4096
..theres more but I figured I'd throw that out..

number 5 is the speed of a PAL A500 and 6 is the number of colours in the OCS/ECS palette.

33.180. A Workbench or Kickstart version?

Kickstart 1.3, isn't it? I cannot get 2) or 3) though...

1> 33.180
no idea
2> 8361
Agnus? Denise? dunno, some custom chip :-).
3> SCA
virus
4> 80000004
guru
5> 7.14
MHz
6> 4096
No. of colours :-).

saying 'a chip' 'red boxes'...thats the obvious. but what it is exactly is another. :)
odin: correct!!!! (other then 1 & 2..well..#2 you're very close)

3> SCA
Is it not also a connector and iirc theres some kind of connection with scala, vague memory ?
4> 80000004
The number of times AmigaOS is better than Windows obviously :-D

Hi,
This is only coming off the top of my head...
1> 33.180 = Kickstart 1.2
2> 8361 = OCS Denise?
3> SCA = Swiss Crackers Association? I remember they made an Amiga virus
4> 80000004 = Illegal instruction guru error?
5> 7.14 = Clock speed of NTSC Amiga systems? I think PAL was 7.09MHz
6> 4096 = Total amount of colors in the OCS/ECS palette
So how did I go?
-
SCA, a virus. That rings a bell. Wasn't it the first Amiga virus ever or one of the first anyway.
-
1> 33.180
Kickstart 1.2 version number. Had buggy expansion.library, thus 34.x (1.3) was released.
2> 8361
The original OCS NTSC Agnus. Maximum 512KB chip memory.
3> SCA
One of the first bootblock viruses, came after byte bandit IIRC. Made by Swiss Cracking Association (the virus name SCA is obviously short from this). "Something wonderful has happened... your amiga is alive!". .. or so. Videly spread at the time.
4> 80000004
Unhandled illegal instruction exception taken, system displaying this in a requester, or guru. 0x80000000 (bit 31 set) means it's deadend (cannot ignore and continue), 0x4 is the illegal exception vector number.
5> 7.14
NTSC 68000 amiga clock speed. Divided from the system clock that runs all the timing.
6> 4096
rbg444 (4 bits per gun), 16*16*16=4096, the maximum number of different colours possible with OCS denise. Also maximum number of colours possible at the same time using HAM6 mode.

Well,
33.180 is the Rev of the Kikstart 1.2 I think, released on my birthday date(on the rom we can find 28/10/87 as i can remember)
8361 is fat agnus, the first rev. after the A1000 (found on early A500/2000)
SCA was the first amiga virus around 1987 (Swiss cracking Association)
8000004 : well i think this is an adress, GURU MEDITATION !!
7,14 is the 68K speed of the original amigas (A1000/2000/500/CDTV/600) as i can remember this is the PAL speed (ntsc was slighty faster)
4096 is the number of colors of the palette with OCS/ECS chipset or the number of colors using HAM6

That GURU meditation is "Illegal Instruction", although, most folks here know that already I would guess. Funny though, as a developer, that was where my eyes immediately gravitated to when I read the post.

Did you not ask for the first thing that came to my mind? :-)
