Yahoo have been getting on peoples' nerves a lot lately haven't they?

First Amiga owners get their Yahoo Mail accounts rendered impotent,
then we can't view this wonderful modded A1200!

I've always thought Yahoo to be the cheapo option, I remember finding
Alta Vista a much more intuitive search engine years ago. What exactly
do people do on Yahoo, it seems to be a load of nothing. Better to do
one thing good than everything rubbish!

On the subject of modding Amigas, I think the nicest enhanced Amigas
are those which keep their original look and parts and have specially
manufactured hardware fitted onto existing ports.

I don't believe in hacking, overclocking etc.

I'm sorry but I do not agree with that "modded to the max". Amigized ATX PSU and 2 harddrives hardly qualify. Seem to have a dead RF as it uses an "A500 RFModulator". :/

Ok maybe not so modded,but the reason he used an RF from an 500 is that the TV don`t got any SCART.And did you see the homebuilt mouse box?

:-? The A1200's own RF modulator has exactly the same outputs as the 500 RF box. There's no reason to use that, unless the internal one is dead.

The part I was most impressed about was the coffee machine next to the computer. I think I need to do something like that with my computer setup :)

The homebuilt mouse box, although it's cool hardly, have anything to do with a modded A1200... it's "just" external hardware.

Dude! It's just an ordinary A1200! For some reason with an A520 TV modulator... as if the user didn't realise the A1200 has a modulator built in...

What I find most disturbing is the fact that the dude is selling the almost bog standard A1200 machine with the help of a pirat DVD with some 5000 adf files, happily write down all the names of pirated games that are on the DVD in his advert.

Sure people can go and download a lot of games online these days but these are for personal use and can not be passed on, let alone sold.
