No more Emulator for me - Want an Amiga

The MiniMig output is scan doubled and flicker fixed... My LCD TVs look horrible when running my A500 and A1200... Both via RGB (Scart) and the RF modulator...



AMOS isn't generally compiled but the 68k on the MiniMig does run quite a bit faster than the A600.

heh, true. little extra speed never went amiss.
Own 3 LCD TV's all display fine, without any flicker, and display NTSC fine as well. Can even link it up through VGA for scandoubled modes, but generally don't bother. In fact, iv'e never seen any LCD I own display interlace flicker. I guess it's going to depent on his make and model of TV then.

He wants a real Amiga
He does not want to use an emulator
He wants to use a mouse to draw
He wants to use a keyboard to program
He probably does not want to spend 300 quid, when he can get an A600/A1200 for far less. Even the minimig is cheaper.

Why don't you listen to what the the man wants, rather than trying force your viewpoint that's contrary to what has been requested?

I'm not forcing anything, as a matter of fact it's pretty much the same for me if he wants to fill his apartment with buttugly hardware, I merely told about an option he may not been in knowledge of.

There are pros and cons as always.. in this case it may not be exactly what he wanted but instead he gets a good mediacenter. I feel its more you forcing options here.. you want to offer only one solution while I added an extra option. Sorry if I wen't offtopic with emulation stuff.. would have stfu if I'd known it causes this much stir.

No Stir    :banana: A1200 :banana:

..and encouraging illegal activities that I think is not allowed on Amiga.org

Amiga emulation for PS3 was posted and accepted and discussed as newsitem awhile back, so apparently it ain't so much of a hot potato for Amiga.org moderators.

I own legal copies of Amiga roms .. it takes a much bigger company than Sony to stop me lying on the sofa drinking beer while watching good old Amigademos

@Hooligan

Nah,your as entitled to your opinion as I am, so maybe I should stfu

As for a butt ugly Amiga, your right that's going to be the problem, most second hand ones are a lovely '20 smokes a day' colour (well, maybe not the Amigakit ones).

AmigaKit will be happy to supply a nice clean one for a few $100 more.  As for LCD display I suggest Svideo(If your LCD has it) Smoother than RGB (IE: not as harsh/jaggy)
Here you go: http://www.amigamaniac.com/RGB_to_PAL_NTSC_adapter.html out of stock but they'll be back....

Hacking PS3's is illigal and your telling a fellow forum user to do it

[tone007]

Hacking PS3's is illigal

..are you sure?

[foleyjo]

..are you sure?

Well I don't have a law degree but I do know if your caught hacking sony will ban your console from the PSN and take you to court and get injunctions slapped on you that prevent you hacking any sony product

[bloodline]

..are you sure?

Google Geohot

[tone007]

Glad I stick to hacking cellphones, then.

Would be nice to know which part of finnish law forbids me to modify hardware I purchased with my own money. Without knowing better I would even go as far as guessing the law precisely tells I can do what ever I want with my device.

I also have hacked tv playing videos and a hacked regionfree dvd-player so quess that makes me a triplepirate

[Khephren]

The whole Geohot thing is very iffy. Sony are out to prove he was actively promoting piracy. As far as I understand it, they are trying to get him on that, rather than say he has no right to alter a piece of equipment he owns rather than licences. After all you bought your PS3, it's yours, not sony's. The network you try to play on, that's a different story. Anyway, a bit OT

@tone

Good job, iv'e always fancied doing that. You need a new case sticker though
Hope you have blue LED's for that bad girl!
