Oh you just got an algor did you??? Welll......well......

hmmm nothing controversial about that...move along people....

Hey, i also have an Amiga product waiting for me at home...My towerized Amiga 1200 finally arrived.  Wow, it seems like 100 years ago that I ordered it, 9 days to get here! LOL....

It has a PowerTower case and Mediator and PCI network card...flicker fixer/scan doubler.

It's not exactly going to scorch the earth, I will need to add a video card, the 80mb disk it comes with is just insulting...that will be replaced quickly...but it should be fun! woo hooo

oh yes and os 3.9

but nothing really new like an algor...

I know what you mean....I really thought seriously about an A4000....of all the classic Amiga's, its going to have the most throughput....

but this machine was such a good bargain and it technically met all my requirements, I went for the bargain, what can I say, I'm cheap.

my requirements where simple, CPU with full MMU, ethernet card, OS 3.9 and cd-rom drive, hook up to VGA monitor.

WOW...it just barely met my requirements, but amazing that it did, with no further expansions...and I got it cheap.

Now, I will add a bigger hard drive and a voodoo3, cause its clearly just wrong, very wrong, to have graphics card capability and not add one...

but after my program is done, its probably time to sell this bugger and get something better....probably a PPC motherboard.
