    A2000 again and played some games on it. Great :)

    More or less alive :) I got Amiga last year after 25 years without
    Amiga and started programming again and I dont spend too much
    time with my family anymore :)

    I'd personally would trade 3/4th's of my family for a reall fully-loaded
    A4000! Hmm..maybe I'll ask Santa??

    :) I think that Santa doesn't have familiy so... ;)

    Are you kidding? Don't tell Mrs. Claus. I mean, where do you think all
    of the elves in the workshops come from????

    I feel ya on the prices these days. For what I use, WinUAE does the job. If I spent the money for what I am emulated, I can buy a new car with the
    same amount.

    DL: Got the Amiga/C64 Forever packages. Love them as well...but if I had a
    DL: chance
    DL: to buy original hardware for a decent price that I could afford...I would DL: jump at it in a heartbeat.

    DL: As soon as I get the BBS running on OS/2-ArcaOS...am looking at setting up DL: VICE on the box & running C64 games. With 12 GB of DDR3 memory on that
    DL: box...shouldn't have any problems at all.

    Decent price is the issue. I have found good deals on C64 and C128 haerdware and jumped on them. Currently running a C-Net DS-2 on a real C64. I
    have a C128 coming soon that will house a C-Net128 BBS on real hardware. I am emulating the Amiga for my Amiga BBS and also emulating a C64 with Vice and running a second C-Net DS-2 BBS on Vice.
    I challenge everyone to call the Real Hardware then the Emulated Hardware and see if you can tell the difference.

    Been meaning to throw on my copy of ColorTerm & take a look at yours & other boards. Problem is no matter how much time I have...wish I could get some
    more sleep each night..along with time to check out other boards.

    I have two desk top systems one of them is running the Amiga, Laptop and both of my servers are being hosted in St.Louis, MO. One is a really old machine and
    the other is a Icore 7 with 8 Cores, 64 GB of memory, two 4 TB harddrives and 1
    GB internet connection. That counts me in.

    Very true! Have found I've become my grandfather where I would come home from work...sit down in a comfortable chair & snooze off for a couple of hours. Then...I would be ready for everything else. Have been told I can get the
    rest I need when I pass on...but will still be too busy haunting people. ;)

    I'm sure something can be arranged. However you need to source your own power supply since the ones I have is for 220V with european sockets.

    Any older system like that you would want to up-date the power supply.
    I have on all my othe Commodore systems. If you get time, and you don't mind.
    Can you look into this?
