Re: Relegated Amiga!

I only turn on my Classic Amigas once in a while to make sure they still work (they do).

I would like to set up my A500 with a large HD and WHLOAD to make it a super Retro game machine and hook it up to my 26" TV for my 8-year old son to see what video games used to look like.

I also have WinUAE (AmigaForever2005). I am still amazed at how compatible it is both for WB1.3 as well as 3.1/3.9. It has great custom chip emulation, especially Paula, for my music apps.

The Amiga I use most nowadays is my Amithlon, for surfing, tinkering, writing, networking. I use it at least once a day. It's as fun as my first A1000 nearly 20 years ago.
A1000 - 2 Floppies, 2 MB RAM, OS 1.0-1.3
A500 - 170 MB HD, 8 MB RAM, OS 1.3/2.04
A2000 - 350 MB HD, 8 MB RAM, A2630, OS 2.04
A2500 - 540 MB HD, 8 MB RAM, A2630, OS 3.9
A1200 - 20 GB HD, 64 MB RAM, Blizzard IV
Amithlon - 49 GB HD, 768 MB RAM, PIII-1G
AROS - 80 GB HD, 2 GB RAM, P4-3.2GHz
