Aside from the A1, how about Pegs?

Pegasos.co.uk only seem to sell boards, but 2 companies in Germany are selling complete systems.  I'm not looking for a ready made one, but I can image it putting some people off!

Someone should make cheap readily built Pegasos machines in the VCR cases. They would sell my the hundred I'm sure.

Hi

my suggestion, is some useful accessories for overclocking/customiz. (good for Amiga and for pc too).

Fans, heat-sinks (all sizes), thermal paste, all the stuff required for customization-OC.

. . . and if you are able to find some 68060@66 Mhz, oscillators and so. . . you could do the difference ;-)

Ciao

Thermal paste and oscillators are definately an idea!

How does the community feel about PS2 keyboards with the Windows keycaps replaced with "A"?  Could be good for the AmigaOne owners.

Yes, but is there a real market for it?  Or are people just happy to use M$ Windows keyboards with their Amigas?

The type of keyboards that are worth doing are the excellent Logitech wireless and elite range, but they are premium priced...

Depends.. Maybe ask for a poll here..

IIRC Computer City used Cherrie keyboards..

Amiga Software Development Kits and application dev software, which is the first thing I thought of when I saw the URL.

How about software bundles/kits such as game kits, application kits, media kits, etc.

Also, how about a section of Amiga systems designed for particular tasks such as Multimedia Amiga Kit, Application Development Amiga Kit, Database Admin/Dev kit, Basic Home Computer Kit, Media Center Amiga Kit, etc.

When I see "kit," I think of a collection of tools that has a function or purpose.

Hmm.. Interesting idea.. Maybe an hardware bundle as well, tho that should perhaps wait...

What would be the real difference then ? Are you thinking in normal programming languages or stuff like SEUCK ? Or did I misunderstand you completely now..

I would rather saw off my hands than use Windows keys on a non-MS machine of any sort.  I was planning to get one of the 'boing' Cherry keyboards, though they only come in beige :-(

You wish is my command...

Thermal paste makes an appearance in the store.  Thermal pads and heat sinks will materialise this week too.

Hope this helps!

Will these be small enough for a PPC? (apparently chipset coolers are the right size, IIRC).

Forgive the intrusion, but might perhaps be the best time to promote the idea of advertising on Amiga.org??

Yes we are strictly Amiga-only.

This is because we are more technically specialised in Amiga-only kit and don't want that expertise "diluted" by other platforms.

I feel users get better customer service from specialists too.

Anyway atm we have our Summer Sale on and new batch of products have been added.
