Amiga.technology Blog

Nobody asked for a recap of a logic chip rewrite.

I know, I know, I have not been the most disciplined with my blog posts in the last... uhm.. three years.

Hi there, it’s been a while.

… come in threes, they say, or “Aller guten Dinge sind drei” in my native tongue German.

Alright, there is some progress on the front of my 68040 to 68060 adapters.

Don’t you know the feeling when you’re just on cloud 7 with your Amiga?

Back in the late 80s and early 90s, when the Amiga was relevant as a technical revolution, I was never able to lay my hands on anything beyond an 68000 with 7.14MHz.

I have not been keeping up well with this blog in the last few months.

… and even more obviously, everybody needs a second recap in their quarantined life.

Or was it “Hyper, hyper!

… When I have been playing my overclocking games, I was sourcing a lot of oscillators from eBay.

Ok.

The heat wave has hit Mountain View these last few days and caused a power outage for the better part of the weekend, so between 40C/105F and no electricity to power a soldering iron we enjoyed mango ice instead of working on all the projects.

A few days ago I did some temperature measurements with my zz9000 graphics card from MNT GmbH in Germany, which turned out to be surprisingly hot.

I’ve heard of the whole Chinese relabeling industry, but in the past I have always been lucky with my eBay purchases.

What happens to long lived electrical engineers?

My keyboard is missing a key.

Lots of things happening at work, so it’s good to do a little meditation by soldering in the evening.

When I got my A4000 late last year, I could not have been a happier kid.

It has been 10 years since I have moved to the US and therefore had left all my Amiga gear behind.
