Title: List of all Amigas versions (revisions)
Post by: sim085 on December 11, 2008, 11:38:09 AM

Hi,

Is there maybe a list with all the VERSIONS (revisions) of Amiga types produced (maybe with photos as well).

What I mean is this; there was an A500, A1200, etc. However I know that there where many versions (revisions) of A500 which sometimes had changes also in the way they looked.

Is there maybe a site which shows all the versions (revisions) and the main differences between them?

Regards,
Sim085

Thank you :)

I found this http://www.amiga4ever.nl/ which is the website of a person on these forums (Tahoe). It comes pretty close to what I am looking for since it has photos of nearly all revisions.

Thanks,
Sim085

Hi Tahoe,

First of all congratulations on your website; it is very helpful (at least for me) since with it I can see how to recognise the different revisions of the A500/A500+ :)

On eBay.com there are many A500 for sale and without your website it would be impossible to know which revision they are. So a big thanks ... you must really be keen on Amiga to own so many of them :)

Thanks again,
Sim085

@sim085: as far as i know, there are at least 3 different mobo revisions for A1200: 2b2, 1d1 and 1d4. Some of them have timing issues (easily fixable9, and besides that, some of them are 100% compatibles with all accelerator cards...

All my 1d4 revisions 8i have owned 7 different A1200 with that revision), have proven to be rock solid with at least 7 diffrerent accelerators (Apollo, Blizzard, Viper, Blizzard PPC, BVision, Indivision) and some other expansions like Power Flyers.

hope this info is useful for you!

I can send you pics of 1d1 and 1d4 revision boards so you can see for yourself differences

@Tahoe: amazing site you have!!!! Congratulations!! Now on my bookmarks!!!!

Saludos

Sebastian

Hi Gavilan,

Thank you for your reply. I am mostly interested to know about the A500/A500+. However I would not mind to know about any differences (both internally and externally) between the different revisions of A1200 and other models :)
