BTW - Why does anyone WANT a bridgeboard?

I don't know man, I don't know.  Although I still kind of want one of those "PowerPC" boards for the A500 trap door.  No use for it, and no time, really, but always thought they were pretty cool back in the day.  Nostalgia, I guess?  Or maybe file transfer with old PC's?  People do have their reasons, just ask that guy who had the thread with like 500 comments on it about bridgeboards.  ;)

In one of the other forums I participate in (a forum for Chevy trucks) a guy recently gave me grief because I took apart my dashboard to add some USB ports.  He was all like "Why not just use one of those little cigarette lighter adapters to add USB plugs?" -- Well, maybe because I didn't want to, bud.  Why does anybody do anything?  Why not just drive around stock vehicles like they came from the factory, or use bone-stock, unmodified Amiga's like god and Commodore intended, right?  :laughing:

I was young with more money than cynicism and caution.  Experience is the best teacher, yeah?

I'm still waiting for my AmigaOS 4 t-shirt.  :lol:

 See, you derail threads too. I could actually go through your entire online posting history and show copious examples of your behaviour, but I've actually got better things to do than patronize, belittle and bully you for no reason apart from jealousy.

Once again, a joke that's been part of the Amiga history for over a decade flew completely over your head. :lol:

But thanks for reminding me that there's jerks and know-it-alls in every forum! :roflmao:

Rom warning, you only get one.

If my posts trigger you so much, there's always the block list.

Nice board! Definitely an improvement over C='s older XT and 286 boards. FYI this model can be upgraded to use a 486 chip, more info in this thread:
