Do you have an Amiga 2000? What's inside it?

Does your Amiga 2000 have an Amtrade HD disk drive?

Do you have a CD-RW drive in your Amiga 2000?

What OS do you use with your Amiga 2000?

May I just ask why so many threads for what is essentialy the same subject?

To iamaboringperson,

Because they are NOT the same subject and I want to know.

[amiga2000]

inside my Amiga 2000:
Blizzard 2040
PicassoIV with Paloma/Pablo (I have never really used the Pablo unfortunately)
Concierto
Catweasel (I just use it for the Buddha interface)
Highway with Norway
Siamese video switcher
DKB MegaChip

oops - I guess my signature says it all... The X-Surf seems to have broken partially - it only worked if I held the card in place at an angle.

To vortexau:

The Commodore A2320 (Amber) video card is a very nice card.  I use one in my own Amiga 2000HD.  I have a ViewSonic 17" Flat-Panel display plugged into my A2320 board and it looks really impressive.  I can even play all of my video games on it and it looks better then my Commodore Amiga monitor.  I recommend the A2320 Amber card to everybody that has and uses an Amiga 2000 professional computer.  It is such a great card.  I picked mine up from eBay for only $35.00.   :-D

I have an A1500 (which is the same thing as an A2000). Inside I have:

* GVP G-Force 030 40Mhz + 4Mb
* Cybervision 64/3D (which I will be selling soon, since its too slow in Zorro II)
* GVP IOExtender (selling soon, no use for it)
* Hydra AmigaNET 1.1 (not selling, I need that :-) )

Burn-marks :-)

VideoToaster, P&P 040, 41 megs ram, TBCIII, BCD2000, 2xHD's, chips, wires and stuff. No dust though because I clean it out. Dust ain't good for computers.  :-)

Do you know why my Concierto doesn't work properly?

@Brian:
could you talk us more about your 2000 with AGA? Where did you find that card? Did you build it? There's any possibility of getting one?

[vortexau]

Yeah, my A2320 was a second-hand acquision as well - but was added a couple of years after the PicassoII RTG Card. It passes-through native screens using a connection to the Picasso.

I play few games so it takes mostly the Startup Screen that I use in booting 3.1 which I use for ProWrite 3.3! ProWrite can be retargeted by the original PicassoII Driver; but not by 3.5's Picasso96!

Its an interesting fact that the original PicassoII Driver can handle Screen Dragging, but Picasso96 can not! When I'm doing postal mail with ProWrite, I commonly drag down the WB to COPYnPASTE the addresses to an envolope-printing utility.

TVPaint and a RTG Card really make an accellerated A2000 shine . . . . . . .
