Thank you :) Used to have the 1230 accelerator, sold it and stayed for a complete year not using my Amiga 1200 with no accelerator or anything. After this long term patience I got this Apollo 1260 :). But in the meantime I have prepared libraries of movies for it and a HUGE LIBRARIES of games so that when I get the accelerator it would be worth it. Also I send my WiFi card to be updated to support WPA/WPA2 security so that my Amiga 1200 can go WiFi and go online :)

I am also planning in the future to buy this for my A1200: http://www.220-electronics.com/sharp-lc22dc30m-22-multi-system-led-tv.html. This way I can have a complete multimedia system for my A1200 and put my 1084S in storage. I still do not have the heart to get rid off or sell the Commodore 1084S so I will keep it safe in storage when I buy that TV.

Cool, congrats on your upgrade.

Now go and grab some of my 060 ports off AmiNet to play with, top of my list would be ScummVM AGA 060 and BOOM AGA 060 using the 'Back to Saturn' total conversion.

BOOM baby BOOM

DosBox AGA development continues, Matt is making progress with the dynamic 68k core.   I'm not really doing anything on the project at the moment because I'm waiting for the core (it will be too slow to use without it).

I'm also a little bit busy with Quake 2 AGA development :)

Nice Ports on AmiNet!

Don't forget to share with him your link on how to configure the software patches to make the most out of his new 060.

I'd do it, but I forget the link. :)

That's true, without the right setup you won't be getting full speed out of your 060.

OH WOW! Boom AGA LOOKS GREAT and the speed on 060 is superb!! Yes! I will for sure add this to list of games I am going to install in my Amiga 1200.

Sorry, not sure what link he means?

Best talk to Lurch about setup, he's just brought an 060 himself ;)

Can I private him here in Amiga.org by just entering Lurch?

I have some 100MHz crystals if you like to try one. I had no luck so far, mine just boot loops with no picture. But I haven't given up, going to try another PSU :-)

My CF Card died, I think it was my fastata that killed it so going back to a laptop HDD. Once I have that setup going to have to post some videos. :-)
