Title: Found SOOO much hardware under my bed!!!
Post by: mantisspider on November 18, 2003, 12:00:31 AM

Hi Guys,

I was made to clear up all my stuff from my parents place. and I thought I found all my Amiga gear from my uni days.

* EZ-Key (1995 not sure which version probably 1st)
I found a EZ-Key adapter from Eyetech. Labelled 1995. But I cant find the ribbon that goes into the Amiga keyboard slot on the motherboard. :-( anyone know where I can get one?

* Wierd IDE thing
I found a strange thing labelled HS-021, its got a female port on one side that looks like it goes into the IDE pins on the Amiga motherboard and on the otherside there are pins for a 3.5 harddrive. Also has a power cable wanting to get some juice i think.
Had a thought about using this device with 1 IDE pin out to have the HardDrive and CDRom running off it.

* Catweasel MKII
This is just sitting here in a box all nice and sealed with a handfull of cables and the software on floppy. Shame though cos this would be nice to use a PC floppy drive, in the last year I havent used a floppy disk on my PC's. So i might just sell it.

I also found a collection of Harddrives and PC floppy disk drives. and two Amiga Floppy drives.

anyone know where I can get a keyboard ribbon to use with my EZ-Keyboard adapter? cheers.

Hi,

If you have any A1200 44 -> 40 way IDE cables, talk to Venkman (http://amiga.org/userinfo.php?uid=6282), I think he needs to get hold of one...

I found 10 squid under my bed when I was getting a new bed in my room recently. That was nice. :-D

@Karlos

I'm pretty sure both TigerDirect and CompUSA
have those adapters (would probably have to
ship from the US though).
