Title: Another user from SA
Post by: FFS on February 22, 2013, 07:58:23 AM

Hey there, another user from SA, pulled out the old A500, been in the ceiling boxed for 20 years, still working all good, although my workbench 1.3 booted a couple of times but the drive killed the diskette, so trying to find someone to write one for me down here, other than that at least some of my games are all good, and played moonstone again for the first time in countless years, my A590 unfortunately has a dead drive, so looking for a way to convert to compact flash, scsi would probably be the easiest way.
 
Well enough of my rambling, glad to be a part of the Amiga comunity once again, and at least this time around I have the internet, haha.

Excellent!

Whereabouts are you? I'm in Joburg (Honeydew). I can send you a new WB disk and I have a 4GB SCSI drive lying around if you want.

Cheers

Cool!

PM me your postal address and I'll send them to you. You might need updated ROMS for your A590, I'll burn a couple if you need them too.

Cheers
