None of my Amiga`s have military grade components, but my PSU is an old Russian nuclear reactor. Does the job quite well. It still struggles to keep up with my upgrading :-D

What's the deal with large signatures?

I really doubt 90% of the people reading the thread are interested in every single computer or every little point in the spec of a person's machine :-)  Nor am I interested in encouraging anything that could be construed as penis measurement.

Actually, he's not completely talking out of his backside... The chip description in question is a US military chip manufacturing standard. While the chips themselves may not be "mil spec," they follow a standard... A common practice for manufacurers in general.

Mac Mini 1.5GHz, that might run MorphOS someday, when the fools who own it come to the realization that 30 minutes just isn\'t enough time to play with it enough to decide whether or not you like it enough to cough up $200.

@CU_AMiGA,

Off topic, are you in any way related to the magazine? One of my favourites, it was a dark day indeed when it dissapeared.


Sorry! I just wanted to know Doomies machine spec and what he uses it for. Thats all. And no i am not related to CU Amiga, lol apart from being a loyal reader!  :-P  What a shame it went. :-(

Would you mind cutting the size of your sig by about 90% please?


Write down the spec of your Amiga and/or PC into a webpage, post that URL in your sig or when necessary instead.

My Amiga spec ~ My PC spec



Sorry! (again). I have now shrunk the sig by about 5 or 6 lines (not sure about 90% though).


Would it be possible to get these "military" grade chips for my A1200?

@DoomMaster

What is the spec of your suppa duppa A2000HD professional computer? And what do you use it for?

PS: Did you get my "Fan" mail - titled A1200 Concern!

You do NOT know what you are talking about when it comes to Amiga 1200's! :lol:

Stubbling? Is that like stumbling with a cold? :-) Whats so funny about having a nuclear reactor for a PSU? Perfectly normal to use old stuff for different purposes, where I come from. I`ve got an AK-47 in the kitchen. They make very good tin openers :-)

Do you have an Amiga in your military grade ships?
« Reply #97 on: September 15, 2003, 07:07:33 PM »
Military_Ships, although this is really a Military Boat!



Now, if a crewmember were to take an A600HD onboard in his kitbag then . . . .
there would be an Amiga onboard this Military (grade) Ship (or boat)!

And, if that crewmember had obtained a bag of Potato Chips from his PX, and taken that bag onboard then . . . .
he could be eating Military (grade) Chips while operating his A600HD in his cabin onboard this Military (grade) boat! If he had taken a whole swag of Potato Chips onboard because the rest of the crew had "chipped-in" then . . . .
all the crew could be eating Military (grade) Potato Chips (from the PX) that all had "chipped-in" for, on this Military (grade) boat (or ship) so . . . .
then THAT Military (grade) boat would be a ship with Military (grade) Potato Chips . . . .
If they were transporting an Army Road Grader to some zone . . . .
then THAT Military (grade) boat would be a ship with Military (grade) Potato Chips and a Military Grader . . . .

And, if that Grader had a lot of wear on its blade with metal-chips missing . . .
THEN, there would be metal-chips missing from that Military Grader which was being carried by a Military (grade) boat (or ship), with an Amiga in one cabin, along with a lot of Military (grade) Potato Chips (from the PX) which were in such a large quantity because all had "chipped-in"! :-)

(NOTE - IF anyone says: "Dude, THAT'S a BOAT, not a ship then see below)



It could[/i] have happened in Norfolk instead!

Hmmm... I thought this thread was locked?

Anyways, I don't care for "DoomMasters" system specs.

What I want to know is why he claims he was working on "Workbench 4.0", and why he thinks it will work in some old accelerator card in his A2000.

AOS4.0 is ment to require PPC CPU's. AFAIK PPC CPU's were never available on the A2000.

Military grade chips, I can believe this.. I know NASA used countless Amiga based machines, (information is dotted around the net, I also remember an old Amiga CU mag stating this)
2 of witch are ending out into space...
1 being the early Mars explorer, (cheap to build and reliable too).. not forgetting the 100`s of satillites orbiting us everyday...I would be interested in knowing the chip IC-MC51XXXXX number..

thanx mate

lol.
Restraining orders are just another way of saying I love you!
