Have you made a profit with your Amiga?

My C64 and later my first A500 taught me enough to start as a computer professional in '90 - which is still feeding me today (of course I never stopped learning).

Sadly, the Amiga only briefly played an active role in my job, but it was where I discovered many basics I still use every day: programming/scripting, networking, client/server stuff, digital audio & video.

Very good point - it introduced a LOT of people to computer programming, many of whom went on to be computer professionals. So indirectly it made a lot of people money...

Webstore is maintained with an Amiga.

Invoice/Packing slip printing by rack mounted Amiga. Ghostscript/Turbo print used.

Order processing by another rack mounted Amiga.

Adverts/marketing materials are designed/editted using Pagestream on a heavily expanded Amiga. Then saved in PDF format ready for printing

What case did you use for rackmounting?
Most cases seem to take max 12" x 13" mobos...
An A1200 mobo, for example, is about 17" long, isn't it?
I don't suppose you have any pics?

Thanks :-)

@ Amigakit

Thanks for that!
I've been thinking of rackmounting an Amiga 1200 for ages niow, but the 2u cases I've seen don't look like they'll accomodate an A1200 mobo because of the internals. What case did you use, or did you just get it made?
I've got a mate who works at a design place that cuts metals, plastics etc, but I was hoping I could use an 'off the shelf' case with a few minor modifications...
