Besides, what has this to do with the question?

Perhaps it's a preemptive answer in foresight with valid intention to initiate predisposed curiosity from deviation.

I like the improvisation of your workstation, especially the creative use of house bricks.

Looks nice and snug. With minimum amount of swivel from your chair you're in front of another computer, genius.

Thats just the workshop.. You should see this room and my actual Amiga room. And they are all built around rotating on one chair. I do enjoy my computing.

Q: "What is the exact name of this Commodore floppy drive ? "

A: An Amiga Sidecar. Allowed the Amiga to run IBM PC programs at full speed, the Sidecar was an 8086 computer inside this enclosure with a 5.25” disk drive.

Hope that helps.

Isn't it called the A1060? Or is my memory trying to trick me again?

You are most bodaciously and awesomely correct.

Hilarious.

"Your Blizzard 1230 IV, does it conflict with the PCMCIA port of Amiga 1200. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink. Know what I mean?"

To the PSU issue, yes I have a A500 power supply somewhere with my old faithfull Amy 500 =)...But its offly yellowed, hate that about it =(...

Fast Show:

"Your A500 power supply, is it faithfull to your Amy Sir. I can picture it now Sir as you take your A500 out and plug it into some yellowed PSU, insert that little bit of rough into your Amy. Show that Amy some authority Sir... ohh Suit You Sir."
