Yikes!  Thanks for the pic!  But what the heck possesed Commodore to come up with such trash for Memory??

At the time the ZIP was the fastest RAM you could get, It was awesome for its time, but was not cheap! Think of it as the RIMM of its time. In the end cheap was the way to go.

Around '89 when the A3k was developed, the ZIP packaging promised the highest packing density and thus the smallest board footprint - 30 pin was obsolete and PS/2 wasn't affordable yet. The industry just went another direction.

THe A3000 I would say is the Most PC looking Amiga............it looks nothing like anything that would have came from Commodore.............looks like a PC Junior or some X86 clone.  Also I think the Software Kickstart was a bad idea. The one thing they did right was ad both RGB and VGA output simultaneously.........this means you can have a Genlock connected while viewing everything on a VGA monitor.

I also dont like the memory type...........THey should have been 72pin SIMMS


Thanks for that :pint:

Anyone wanna do a swap with my Ugliest or Stupidest for a Most PC looking? :lol:

How to discuss something like this ?!? The A4000 is clearly the better one, AGA is needed for all new demos and all the good old games...


AGA needed for all the good old games? So you mean there are no good OCS/ECS games (or demos)? What bs... :roll:

Personally, all my favourite games and demos run perfectly on a 1MB A500.


I agree again  :-D

The best solution is to have several Amiga's  :lol:
A1200, Blizzard 030, 2+32MB ram, 4GB CF, pcmcia netcard, Kickstart 3,1
A600, 2MB chip ram+4Mb pcmcia S-RAM, Kickstart 3,1
CD32 - Just for fun  :-D

@A4000_Mad


hehehe, funny..........That said......all Amigas are awesome, just not all are pretty.......the A500 when i look at it now looks like a hideous beast next to my tiny pretty A600 hehe. The A500 was unforgivably huge........it led me to not want the A1200........i wish i would have got an A1200 from the get go instead of an A600, but oh well.


I see in your pic you have an A4000D?

CD32 is actually the best Amiga ever made by Commodore!...

It sure is! This was my first A4000 and now has a CS MK-I 060/50, Picasso II, IDE Zip drive and and that grey device is an external SCSI Iomega 2GB Jaz drive :-)
