Posts like this are all right in the forums provided that they are in the correct forum.  ComputerCity's post is fine because it's in the "Amiga on eBay" forum.  Wayne's previous comments about "free advertising" were in regards to abuse of the News section, not the forums.

Floppy Drive: 1 x Internal 1.44MB PC Floppy Drive (Can read Amiga disks)

The Access, what power source does it need AT or ATX Can you mount it in any new PC case or do you need to find an old one to fit it in
Would be fun to have it installed in an A4000 tower together with the A4000  :-)

Hiya Sir,

Regarding the floppy drive, don't know how it works technically, but it's a piece of tinkerware, the hardware on the access 'translates' the pc drive to be Amiga compatible.

About the Web.It, back in 1999 Bernard van Thienen (ex Commodore Netherlands CEO) and some friends got an idea for a product, licensed the commodore brand and commodore 64 products names and built the Commodore 64 Web.It.
Basically, it's a PC running PC-Dos 7 and Windows 3.11 on a specially designed AMD CPU. It also comes with a C64 emulator, Netscape, Email, Lotus 123 and a lot more - all built into Rom.
It has a touchpad, 56k modem, diskdrive, VGA out, TV out, parallel, serial, gameport, IDE interface, 2 x pcmcia etc.
They used to be around HFL 800 at introduction (apprx. 350 euro). We bought the remaining lot for a decent price and offer them for 39 now, new in box.

The Access, what power source does it need AT or ATX

It gets its power from a standard 4-pin power connector, just like a cd-drive or harddrive.

Can you mount it in any new PC case or do you need to find an old one to fit it in

It has the same dimensions (and screwholes etc) as a 5,25" drive so it would fit any bay, however it is 'deep' - in many cases the PSU gets in the way. In an original 4000T it would fit I think.

They used to present it in an external 2 x 5,25" bay case, the Access in one bay and an IDE CD-Rom in the other, as seen on the pictures on amiga-hardware.com.

Cheers,
Ron

Effy: yeah, it uses the connector you use for harddrives and cd-r.

you can fit it in any tower if there's enough room for its length... it fits only in the power tower's bottom 5.25 room. As seen here.

So it is a little bit impossible to fit it inside an A4000D ... :-)

Indeed... Same goes for the 2000.

Fit it in an ATX case with an A1 and get an AmigaOne with AGA as a result ;-) - sort of..

Beyond my price range no doubt - some cretins will start bidding it up in the first day... Why do people do that?

At least waiting till the last minute gives the illusion of it being affordable. :lol:

[ComputerCity]

I think they weren't that cheap when they were first released either... More expensive than an a1200.

Just curious: at what price is the current bidding and when does the auction end? (Here at the university, the access to eBay is blocked by the admins.)
