💿 Platine double tête 78+M
En principe, on utilise pas le même type de tête pour lire les 78 tours et les microsillons. Cette ancienne platine a les deux !

At long last -- my Amiga 2000 has a CPU speed switch!
( Fast and Faster )
A "new" 40MHz 68030/882 accelerator with 8MB 32-bit FAST RAM is slotted in and wired with a switch, there on the front. Base 68000 system has 8MB 16-bit FAST RAM, a respectable fallback for cycle-exact OCS/ECS demos.

All issues resolved. The 40MHz 68030 accelerator is installed and working in the A2000.
Here's a victory video of Black Lotus' 2019 OCS/ECS Amiga scenedemo 'Eon'. I am unsure if anyone will get the irony of this video, but the spark of that irony is what motivated this CPU upgrade from the Commodore 68020 board I was running before.

8MB 16-bit FAST RAM installed! Now to drop in the 68030 board...

Happily, was able to find eight 30-pin 70ns FPM 1MB SIMMs, so I can populate the 16-bit Zorro II RAM+SCSI card to 8MB in this Amiga 2000 upgrade.

Cracked open the Amiga 2000 and am moving from a 14MHz 68020 to a 40MHz 68030, and increasing FAST RAM in both 16-bit Zorro II space and 32-bit extended space.
The "new" accelerator is a GVP G-Force 030 (Impact A2000-030 Combo Series II) with 8MB 32-bit FAST RAM and 68882 FPU.
This board has a jumper allowing it to be fully disabled, which I will bring out to a toggle switch (for cycle-exact 68000 scenedemos).

Any wiser ones here actually use a luggable in a professional capacity? My Precision feels heavy enough schleping around, but if I had to use one of these on a business trip I might actually have some muscle definition.

Un petit brin de nostalgie pour les passionnés de vintage tech : le pad QuickShot QS-191 pour PC (1995). 👾
À l'époque où le Gameport DA-15 régnait en maître sur nos cartes Sound Blaster, cette manette tentait le pari d'amener le feeling console sous MS-DOS. Mention spéciale au sélecteur physique de Turbo Fire au centre, indispensable pour survivre aux Shoot 'em up de l'époque sans choper une tendinite.
Quelle était ta première manette PC ?

After lengthy and somewhat casual searching, I've found and purchased (eBay) an accelerator with (critically) a hardware disable for my Amiga 2000, a GVP G-Force 030 with 40MHz 68030/882.
It just occurred to me that, oddly, this will be the first 68030 that I've ever had in the house.
68000, 68010, 68020, 68040, 68060 - yes, but never a 68030.
(Currently using an A2620 14MHz 68020/882/851 in the CPU slot.)

🚨 Breaking: the FCC eliminates broadcast TV ownership limits! Because nothing says "progress" like a media monopoly, right? 😜 Meanwhile, IE 11 is still the browser equivalent of a flip phone 📞—perfect for users who enjoy their news like a fine vintage. 🕰️

1983 : Tandy sort le Color Computer 2 avec 64 Ko de RAM et un Motorola 6809E.
2026 : Votre onglet Chrome consomme 1,2 Go de RAM juste pour afficher une page 404.
Le progrès technique est formidable, surtout pour la RAM. 🕹️💾

I was just listening to ATP Podcast, June 30 eposide, "And Do What?" (I'm a little behind in my listening).
The title is taken from the "Ask ATP" section of the show where someone wrote in asking what three vintage computers the hosts would like, if offered.
Responses were mixed, but early Macs and iOS devices were the main units discussed (and Casey's ThinkPads). Also discussed are those who just collect as an end in itself, and those who actually use these old systems. Getting them online was a big question for Marco.
I know I'm a little older than John, but I was surprised that no Apple II, C64, Atari 8-bits, etc. were mentioned, and I'm looking mainly at Marco who had the most to say about setting them up "and do what" then. How do you get programs onto these pre-internet computers?
I wanted to point out that there are a great many modern devices that make vintage computing much more approachable than the uninitiated may be aware of. I am the sort of collector that is primarily interested in using these systems, once acquired, and I have a room full of them -- most older than the systems discussed in the episode:
https://www.bytecellar.com/photo_pano.html
For most of my floppy-based systems, I've added various flash-based floppy disk emulation hardware and HD/large volume emulation hardware for others. Apple IIe, IIgs, TI-99/4A, Atari 8-bit, Atari ST, my Amigas, NeXTstation, DOS 486, Tandy 1000, etc. As well, a few "WiFi modems" (serial to WiFi using ESP32 tech) get passed around to let them connect to my modern systems or the internet directly. There's a great deal of modern, enabling hardware for those in the hobby.
I use these systems quite often. None are my daily drivers, but one or two is usually on, doing something, on any given day. I'm not browsing the web on these, but demos, games, chat clients, data (tracker mods, video, etc.) streaming -- there's even a Mastodon client running on my 5x86 that actually does the TLS locally and supports image attachments.
There's a lot you can do with systems rather older than those discussed on the show, I'm here to say. :-)

Amiga people: Do any of the new accelerators that work with the Amiga 2000 allow fallback to the original 68000 by way of a PHYSICAL SWITCH or jumper?
I want an accelerator that can be disabled (without using soft-menus to control the state) so that the Amiga is able to fall back to its 100% exact original 68000 state, which some demos require to run properly, due to cycle-precise coding.
I have an A2620 68020 accelerator in my NTSC A2000, but it does not have a physical switch (just a soft menu) and the state gets lost when I juggle that soft menu and the need to also use Degrader to reboot into PAL mode.
Apparently the A2620 can be modified to add a switch, but it's beyond my abilities.
Many thanks.

Just spent way too much money on Noctua fans...
Must be time to finally finish that Windows 98 build.

It's nice to have a small screen on the side to watch YouTube videos while you're playing.
How about an old Sony portable CRT? 😼

I'm still having a blast with Quicktake for Apple II from @colin_mcmillen. It's pretty cool (and rather geeky) to be walking around in public these days with a QuickTake 200 in my pocket. :-P
And new features are on the way...
