Secure a blizzard? amiga is the 1 eh?
« on: June 10, 2003, 07:49:31 PM »
Yeah on my a1200 i have a 060 with a scsi2 and 128 mb ram..Now if i slightly knock my amiga tower it goes off.Or even if i press the power button then obviously it moves the bliz & scsi.So at times it wont boot and i have to have rock the tower a bit left to right for it to work..Anyway i can secure the cards? also in micro mart they had a vote.Bbc micro vs pc,mac vs amiga,well amiga nailed the mac in votes and bbc nailed pc.So they put bbc vs amiga and amiga won in votes hhhahahah cool eh.
Well any help is cool thanks.

I got myself a blizzard 060 50mhz a year ago,
and it FREAKING ROCKS!!!

3 times faster than my previous apollo 040 40mhz.

Im utterly convinced that mhz has very little to do with speed.

Amiga is THE harley of computers.

It's the Triumph of computers - overpriced, not made any more, likely to break down, impossible to find parts for.
Back away from the EU-SSR!

Ok, so Amiga is like the shovelhead* of computers, then...  :-D

Not made anymore, impossible to find parts for, rebuilt to death most of them, but still people love them  ;-)

@ B00tDisk

lol, great analogy!


But didn't they start remaking some of the Triumph bikes in India a while back?
I like Amigas

the best way is to glue a hard plastic box or something on the side of the card so when u put the cover on the tower it wil hold the card and the box u glued to it against the tower case.

works fine for me on my bppc 060 card.

and it worked even better on my old 060 card.

just dont glue it onto the cpu or sanything :)

use yer head please.....and by that i mean not glue it onto the 060 :)

anyway glad to see the bbc lost over the amiga :)



pps:my amiga has ressurected more than any thing else i am sure of it....but then again it might not count as i used over 7 mobo's allready :)

amiga rules !!!
Whats up with all the hate!
