phoenix a1000.....
« on: September 14, 2005, 02:57:46 AM »
after reading about this, why hasnt anyone done a version for the 1200/4000, t make thim into 4000t's or something like a boxer type thing?

just wondering, i mean i know its not economical, but otherwise, is it possible?


hell even an expansion slot for a pci with a 1200 on it, would do me, i mean uae with native chips? - think inverse pc bridgeboard for the 2000.

i mean, thik about this for a second. how many people use PC's? sell them a hardware emulator. with an accessable amiga floppy, and they can help pay for our eventual takeover of the pc market via the amigaone

sorry, i'll stop smoking crack now

i know about the mediator. but i meant instead of the whole messing around with sticking an a1200 in a tower kinda thing, make an atx 1200 with pci slots, i mean we have had mediator-esque things since about 97/98 when i last used amiga

why not move atx?


and i know the chips are soldered to the board, i've messed around with 1200's since about '93 (when i was 11)but taking them off cant be that hard.....


and i noticed the insideout, just after i'd posted this - i knew i'd not just dreamt the idea

you dont strictly need to de-solder thm, they're glued on, and if you just cut away at the motherboard, you'd be able to get the away easily

also if you use sockets on this new mobo, you'd just be able to slot them in, as all the other stuff sould already be built in......pci slots / power flier, scan doubler etc

i mean you have the mobo design, and all the hacks already available, its not like you're really designing sometihng new, just putting the, all together, and spacing out the board a little, the curcuit diagram sint really going to change much
