whats the spec's dude?
an standard amiga 1200 holding its own against a modern pc is pretty absurd.. so you must have a wee bit of "extra" stuff in there.. whatcha got under the hood baby? hehe.
<<<proud owner of an amiga t1200
Amiga 1200
Motorola 68060 + Motorola PowerPC 603e
3D graphic card BVision PPC 8MB (wow! ahem).
Amiga 1200 2.5 inch Hard Disk 800MB
1 standard still working disk drive
a scsi cd drive with whopping x2 speed (would love to get something faster).
500+ games.
x2 joysticks
1 half working mouse (needs the odd wiggle).
+ 16mb extra ram
it looks like the bastard son of my pc but it works a treat still though im pretty sure the hd's got some bad sectors and im sure alot of us know what amiga's are like with bad sectors.. finds one.. DIES... akkk! ,

Yeah its not a standard beasty, but its not as high spec'd as yours:
Amiga 1200
Motorola 68030
No 3D Cards, standard amiga video modes
Amiga 1200 2.5 inch Hard Disk 40MB
External Floppy (Cumana cax 354)
Scsi1 cd drive / caddy
5 cd's of stuff on jolliet discs, DMS'd
No joysticks or mouse
16mb fastram
Technosound Turbo 2 sampler
No modem (yet)
Running MagicMenu (has windows type start bar)
Maybe we can organise a meeting sometime, do an oldstyle copyparty afternoon
Ive got bugger all in the way of working demo's left, even Grapevine shags up on the music....
