In 1991 I had A2000C, 20MB HDD, 3MB RAM, XT-Bridgeboard, 2 internal FDD 3.5", one internal 5.25", one external 5.25", NecMultisync3D, Matrix printer, etc...

I never really used the bridgeboard, I could do everything + more on the AOS side. I sold the A2000 around 1994, without monitor, for 5000FIM (833eur), for video production needs.

I had A2000, 1MB Chip, 2MB fast, bridgeboard (never used that really), 40MB HDD, two 3.5" FDD, one 5.25" drive, NecMultisync3D, VCR, TV, etc... Did some videoeffects (editing), animation, played with 3D rendering, music, midi, graphics, scripting, games (&DIY HD installations of games)...

(it was silly how some older guys who owned x86 came just to see the weir system with more than 640kB continuous RAM)

Too bad that I never made backup of the HDD. I never had any reliability issues. Untill in 1992 we had electricity cut while I was defragmenting the HDD. Lost everything. Never had that great setup ever since. Sold the A2000 in y1994 and got a A4000.

'91 onwards I didn't own an Amiga, was in the high speed world of 486's and the like :-)


Strange... A590 HDD could transfer 2,5MB/sec in y1990 or so, stock 486 did not manage that in 1993, etc, etc...
But perhaps you were just joking.
