What's on your Amiga 'To do' list?

[mr_a500]

Things to do:

A500:
Take final "impossible" screenshot (need digital camera):
"A500 emulating Windows and Mac... at the same time!"
Get SDHC to IDE adapter - use 4Gb SDHC instead of harddrive or CF
Test FAT filesystem to use SDHC->USB adapter ->various computers with USB
Get Viper 530 with 128Mb RAM (520 can then go in A1000)
Connect C64 drive and attempt to write disk images for C64
Get 1020 5¼" drive and attempt to write disk images for Kaypro

A1000:
Use Viper 520 & 40Gb harddrive from A500 (or maybe SDHC)
Find some way to get 2Mb chip (is it possible on A1000?)
Act smug about browsing the internet with a 1985 Amiga 8-)

A3000:
Test SGI filesystem to access Indy drive from Amiga (& fix password)
Get accelerator with 128Mb, Deneb, USB network, video card
Network with my NeXTstation, SGI Indy, Mac OSX, BeOS

A4000:
Get accelerator with 128Mb
Maybe get another SDHC to IDE adapter (currently using CF)

Other:
Get A1200 with accelerator, wireless ethernet

Out of interest why the big thing with SD?

1. It's way cheaper than CF (here in Canada anyway)

2. It's super small - easier to make externally accessable. (it also looks like old 3½" disk and even has write protect tab)

3. It usually comes with a USB adapter. If I keep one in FAT format and have FAT filesystem on Amiga, I can plug it in Amiga, copy stuff, then plug it in any computer with USB - without needing USB on Amiga.

I've no idea myself, but luckily for you THE mr_a500 has just returned :-)

I'm not mr_a500... I'm just his stunt double. ;-)

Hi I'm new to amiga.org. just 1 small question, how can I get my A500 on the net via broadband?

Hi there. :-) It's good to see somebody else insane enough to get an A500 on the internet.

I'm still only using dialup on my A500, but I have heard of others using Windows as internet server for Amiga 500s. Check out this thread.

I was going to get a clockport adapter for my A500, USB and USB network and try to go broadband that way, but then I started to question my sanity...
