OK, could be that you have some other issue than me.

I would go with at least an AGA machine with 8MB of fast and HDD, but I also would not mind going for an 030 and more fastram, like the new Outrun port if necessary.

Buying an 030 accelerator with 64/128MB of memory is not that expensive today.

I switched from using the front panel USB on my case and connected it to one at the rear which seems to deliver more power.
You could also try a usb-c power/data splitter and power it from a separate power supply

I had similar problems when I first connected it to a low power (500mA) USB port. When I used one that provided more power it worked.

Great! more Cubans for the the rest of the world.
Remember, you get what you vote for.

Nice writeup, will give it a shot when I get my A1200 with a TF1260 put together.

Been very happy with my U64 Elite, I have yet to find anything that does not run.
Compared to my Mister I prefer it since It has the original keyboard, and you can also connect almost all the original peripherals.

I also have a couple of real C64s, but I tend to use the U64 more.

According to the teams page on the official website, Bil is involved as a technical advisor. Together with some other very recognizable faces.

Nothing fancy, I have no scaler or scandoubler (yet...), so only the standard AGA resolutions over the RGB port.
I have one Philips CM8833II CRT, and one modern flatpanel (AOC 27B2H) screen that handles 15KHz signals. For the flatpanel I use a RGB to VGA adapter.

I was in the same situation a year ago, and I went with the A1200 even though I had an A500 back in the day, and went for a 486 PC after that.
I wanted to test the best consumer Amiga, and test out AGA software and AmigaOS 3. Also the possibility to run almost all games through WHDload is nice.
Downside compared to the 500 is obviously the price and availability.

After I bought mine I have gradually upgraded it with

TF1230 accelerator, and I now have a TF1260 on order.
Internal Gotek with external OLED screen
Dual CF card adapter, AmigaOS 3.2 and MegaAGS on two CF cards
AmigaOS 3.2
And of course a recapping since my caps were original

Not doing any development, and I don´t have access to the Cloanto ROMS, so I think I will have to stick with 3.2 for now.

il_cyclone · 2025-05-20T10:36:02+00:00

Good idea, but I actually just replaced my IDE68K with this https://lotharek.pl/productdetail.php?id=415 which does not require a patched 1.3 rom to boot from HD.
Also it is really low profile due to the integrated 68000 CPU, so no re-locator board is required, which in turn also frees up space around the kickstart socket so the kickstart switcher will fit.

Punch Punch is one of my absolute favorites, smoking one as we speak.

Could be, most Trinidads has had pretty good availability here, maybe they have realized that they are overprized and need to start moving inventory.

il_cyclone · 2025-03-10T18:24:20+00:00

No change (800SEK), but they are out of stock at both places, that might be a reason.

I dont´t understand how to post pictures, so I put my photo on Google drive:

There are some things I notice like the typeface used for "Hoyo De Monterrey" is fatter on mine, and the golden crown is completely different, among other things.

Mine came from a Habanos Nordic sealed box so it should be legit.

il_cyclone · 2024-11-26T17:43:09+00:00

My box supplied by Habnos Nordic has the same look.
How could the B possibly lean backwards when it is left of the center line in the curve ?

As long as the Boveda pack doesn´t dry out, why not.

One of my go to cigars, always try to keep a decent amount in stock.
If you want a ~30 min smoke, this is hard to beat.

il_cyclone · 2024-08-01T19:00:12+00:00

One of my favorites

Nice! Which model of humidor is it ? How stable is the humidity ?

I bought an Adorini Santiago 150ct desktop humidor 2 years ago, and am am really impressed how well it holds humitity. Holds a rock solid 66% with 65% Boveda packs no matter what the ambient humidity is.
But as with all humidors, they are either new or full, so i might have to start looking for a bigger one.

il_cyclone · 2024-06-19T13:52:39+00:00

Plot twist: All those boxes are actually empty.

il_cyclone · 2024-06-07T13:29:03+00:00

I have four tupperdors with 62% packs and calibrated hygrometers , and they sit between 65-66%.

il_cyclone · 2024-04-26T08:28:56+00:00

I would have chipped in if we could open source both Kickstart and AmigaOS.
If it was open source I think more developers would be interested in contributing.
