Need info about Amiga 1000 "Rejuvenator" board...
« on: December 19, 2003, 01:25:22 AM »
Anyone have an A1000 Rejuvenator or Rejuvenator II board or know anything about them?  Seeking info.  Have a desire to build up an A1000 with one of these boards.  Please let me know anything you can about these boards.  

Is there a review in an old AmigaWorld someone could scan or somthing?  Thanks.

Thanks - yea I had done that search.  Looking for more info.  Like -- is the only diff between Rejuvenator and Rejuvenator II the 2MB CHIP RAM on the latter?  Are there NTSC A1000's that the Rejuvenators won't work with?  Is a Rejuvenator w/ 1.3 ROM going to be able to run the same apps as an A500 with similar custom chips?

Thanks.

Is the Rejuvenator not from Phoenix?  I see indications that it is from another "Expert Services" here and there - but I assume they bought Phoenix or something.  Maybe it's this "A1000 ECS+" I am remembering from the pre-90's "AmigaWorlds that spoke of basically a full upgrade to the A1000.  Any info links for this device (A1000 ECS+)?  I will do a google on it.

Which makes the unit more like an Amiga 2000 or 500 as far as compat. w/ most 1.3 applications?  (I have an A2000 w/ 3.1 ROM's - prob would not take the A1000 beyond 1.3 ROM's).

Thanks for any info here.

Replying to myself here.  Found some info on the Phoenix A1000 ECS+ replacement motherboard.  

http://www.amiga-hardware.com/a1000phoenix.html

Only 500-1000 of these were produced, apparently.  I would love to get hold of one of these or at least a Rejuvenator / Rejuvenator II -- if anyone has any info on how to get hold of one of these, please let me know.
