Amigaos 4.1 - Intel i5 Mac
« on: May 02, 2010, 10:27:26 AM »
Hi I have what maybe a stupid question, what can I run Amigaos 4.1 on? I have a Intel i5 27" iMac, can I use Bootcamp and install on that? Or I have an AMD Athlon in the loft somewhere........

I've got a standard A1200 with internal hard drive with Workbench 3.1, which I did think about putting in a tower and upgrading - is it worth it?

Cheers

Thanks for all your advice, I do long for my many years and late nights working on my Amiga's. I like the ideal of helping and supporting Amiga and keeping that dream alive, I think I'll have to go for a Amiga-like OS that I can run on my Mac/PC, and upgrade my A1200 a bit. Is there a limit on the 2.5" HDD I can use? And is it still PCMICA CD-Rom drives? I would like to be able to look at and print my old documents and programs, is networking possible also? Thanks again

Cool thanks for advice, got out the a1200 for a play.....not alot of installed software or discs seem to work, then again this is the Escom A1200........I may have to change all the hardware over to my Commodore A1200 - or swap FDDs
