Greetings Everyone!
I am a new member but have been a visitor and lurker
on and off over the years. This is actually my
second post, having chimed in to Wayne's note about
a lot of new members, but wondering how many were 'real'.
I'm really real! :-)
My name is Steve and I am from Massachusetts, USA.
While my 2nd post, it IS my first made logged in with
my A2000. She had been off-line for some time, and
was always by dial-up before, but thanks to a new
X-Surf3 and Comcast (and a little trial and error
manually installing the X-Surf drivers and configuring
Genesis because the install script would not run).
Reading some old posts on the topic here was a big help.
Having the Amiga back on the net and with broadband
access has been something I was wanting to do for a
long while.
To give you an idea how long it had been off-line,
Amiga.org was my home page in Ibrowse and the
cached page was the old 'maroonish' color scheme
and the home page had the big SOftware Hut banner.
I am thinking that was May or June of 2001. The
site still looks good in IBrowse today (thanks Wayne!).
My Amigas are:
This A2000 with a GVP/Tekmagic 060@50mhz card, Picasso II,
DKB SCSI, one of the HyperComms, and CD and CD-R. This
is running OS3.9.
A stock A2500 030
An A500 with a Supra drive, some extra mem and clock card
A CDTV with mouse, keyboard, etc.
So, it is nice to be here. Thanks to all for much good
reading and info in the past here. I hope I can
return the favor to others while I am here.
-Steve (ArcticSon)
