Title: New to Amiga.org but now new to Amiga lol
Post by: fitzsteve on February 14, 2010, 11:24:59 AM

Hi there!
 
I've been posting on other Amiga sites for a while now (EAB/Amibay) as I recently got my Amiga kit out of storage.
 
I had no idea there was still such a scene and got the real upgrade bug!
 
To start I had and A1200 (8mb upgrade) and an A500 (1mb) and before 6 months ago they'd spent 8 years in storage!  Well sadly the battery on the ram upgrade in the A1200 had leaked and destroyed the board so I replaced that first...
 
Since then I got anouther A1200 and upgraded it with a Typhoon MK2 (*was 32mb* now 64mb / 40mhz) and an extrenal SCSI CDROM running off the Typhoon's SCSI.
 
And my latest project I got an A600 which I have setup with a 1.3-3.1 rom switcher and with a 1mb upgrade and 2mb SRAM card :)
 
I've attached a few pics of my various projects...
 
Steve.
