Overseas A4000D --> US psu ?
« on: September 01, 2004, 01:43:27 PM »
I'm about to buy a Amiga 4000D from a guy overseas and I have some questions.  It is 220V, can I just change out the PSU? Is it a PAL only machine or can it be changed to NTSC via startup?  Battery has been removed so thats good.  Any other questions I need to ask ?

is there a big difference w/3.0 roms and 3.1?  or for me 3.0 will be ok for a while? as soon as I get this I need to get a prometheus card from Red.

aah yes, 3.9.  I need to read up on the differences between the 3.x operating system versions.
