What is your flavor?

You got it right the first time...

I'd never in 25 years heard the term "Classic" being applied to the Amiga until Hyperion released OS4.0 for "Classic" Amigas...

Now that's all these forums and sites refer to the Amiga as is "Classic" they should really be just called Amigas not "real" or "classic"...

Just saying like...

Exactly, everything else are just OS4/MorphOS/AROS compatible machines not 'Amiga' which is a machine architecture and standard sold by Commodore in the mid 80s to mid 90s and then for a while by ESCOM. No Paula soundchip = not Amiga

Hi,

I use Cloanto's Amiga Forever 2011. Even though I have all my classics set up, I turn them on about once a week in order to keep the batteries charged. Other than that I use a replaceable PC to use as my Amiga.

Just remember (FRANKO) when that old silicon goes, your pal (not video) is gone. I have one dead A500 and one dead A4000 up in the attic. My original A4000 keeps on singing though.  The two dead ones I bought from ebay.

Same here, one dead A500+ and 2x dead A2000 machines all beyond repair. If I had the money it would always be real Amiga, but without a HD for my lonely A1000 then it is not used more than WinUAE.

Anyway AROS/OS4/MOS all use UAE to play Rocket Ranger so I am just cutting out the bespoke motherboard purchase by using WinUAE

BOO... HISS... TRAITOR... :madashell:

(Sorry couldn't think of anything else to say but that... )

I should have added .....

"...when I am actually using an emulated system because there is no Paula chip on the motherboard"



I would love to get my A2000 up and running but it's dead and don't have £100 to fix it in the time of council tax and car insurance renewal right now even if the parts do appear on e-scum-bay
