E-UAE – Full Amiga chipset emulation

I’ve been playing with E-UAE lately on my Amithlon system.  I was having serious issues with launching it and it, 99.9% of the time, immediately hard-locking my system.  It was extremely annoying and frustrating to constantly have to reach over … Continue reading

Updates to the Installation guide

Doing my install I used my own guides to follow along to make sure I had everything.  I bypassed some as my 20 GB drive had been used in another Amithlon test machine so had the DOS bootable OS plus … Continue reading

More comparisons?

I picked up a Mac Mini G4 (2 of them actually) and played around a bit with MorphOS.  I haven’t decided yet if it’s worth the license price, though having a 30 minute “use” window between reboots makes comparing it … Continue reading

System change….A4000T

I was lucky enough to have an A4000T fall in to my hands, so the A4000D is going away and the A4000T is taking it’s place.  Same layout but now I won’t have to worry about the ZorroII/III/Video cards I … Continue reading

More A4000 Goodies!

Thanks to a very helpful/generous friend my A4000 has become “better” and bringing it closer to a more appropriate Amithlon comparison. What’s been added?  A WarpEngine4040 (68040 @ 40Mhz) with 128 MB ram.  The X-Surf 100 has been updated with … Continue reading
