Falcon for the Amiga
Message #23066
All, I'm still on that campaign and I am getting more and more impressed each day with the response. Please keep it up and send me the names of everyone who would like to see Falcon 3.0 for the Amiga. Peter, [Flying the only way to go!] Way High On…
Falcon 3.0 for the Ami
Message #75382
All, My campaign is working, however, it is only a moral victory so far. I need alot more names. Search your user groups, ask friends, neighbors, employees who own Amigas. Falcon 3.0 should be ported and I believe we can get it done. To those who already got the names…
#Falcon 3.0 for Amiga
Message #23008
All, Please take part in the petition to get Falcon 3.0 ported (WRITTEN) TO the Amiga. It seems I hit a raw nearve at Spectrum Holobyte. They think were're all over zealous snooty snobs that can't realize our machine is facing extinction. That comes from AXEL in the Game Publishers…
Leslie, Coprocessor YES. 68EC020 means no MMU. It has a 24 bit address. Peter6 Live from New York on Autopilot
Steve, Hard drive options are the same as for the 600, 20MB IDE U.K., 40MB IDE USA. SCSI card is forth coming. Peter6 Live from New York on Autopilot
There is a text file here in the Amiga Users library which gives a full description of the Amiga 1200. Peter6 Live from New York on Autopilot
#Need Help Falcon for Ami
Message #75280
All, I started a campaign to get Falcon 3.0 published for the Amiga. I have collected 1000 names from Long Island alone of people that want it. Some have already bought PCs' just to be able to play. I need help. Collect some names and send them to me via…
Denny, I have almost every filght sim made for the Amiga and find that FOTI is not up to par with Baron, A-10, BOP, or even F-15II. The limiting factor of being a one scenario game has kept many people from buying it. Spectrum Holobyte should not use that as…
#Falcon 3.0 for the Amiga
Message #22962
All, I have a sugestion for all Amiga flight sim fanatics. If you long to play Falcon 3.0 on the Amiga, collect as many names and addresses of those you know who have an Amiga and feel the same way, and then send them to Spectrum Holobyte. They think we…
Ben, Do it up, but include some compatibility issues. Peter6 Live from New York on Autopilot
Greg, Appology accepted. However, I must be quite protective of my dealer. I know he was in the wrong in BLABBING about the 1200 but it was only to me. He knew how much I wanted a 4000 and that it would be out of my reach for some time.…
Ben, Mabe Commodore will put me in the Consumer protection program. Set me up in a Nice townn on a nice block in a nice house with a nice wife and nice kids and a nice Amiga 4000. BTW, thanks for the review of the 4000. Peter6 Live from New…
Joanne, Thanks a bunch. If the news of my big mouth gets back to Commodore, Long Island could los their only real Amiga dealer. I guess I wasn't supposed to squeel, but no one ever told me about a NDA or even not to say anything. I should have never…
Greg, I guess you don't have Autopilot so it might be difficult for you to read the thread. I am not in any way bound by a NDA. I was the one that compromised my dealers confidence. I was bugging him about a new system for about three weeks. It…
Someone correct me if I'm wrong. "If the Amiga 4000 has a fallback mode all the way back to the OCS, Shouldn't the 1200, thus making it compatible with all software????? Peter Live from New York on Autopilot
A1200
Message #74290
All, Just to set things straight, MY DEALER was the one that told me to hang on and wait for a new computer CBM would release soon. It was on GEnie that I learned of its official release. I downloaded a text file, printed it out and showed it to…
#A1200
Message #74231
All, I'd like to appologize but I don't know who to. I'm sorry that I leaked information I wasn't supposed to. I really didn't even know what a NDA waas until today. I guess my excitement got away from me and I'll keep such info offline until released unless it…

#Amiga 1200 Released
Message #74136
Mark, After reading your reply I realize you're right. I hope I didn't help to damage anything too much but I am really excited about the new Commodore Computers and can't wait to get my hands on one. Again I am very sorry. Peter Live from New York on Autopilot

#Amiga 1200 Released
Message #74127
Mark, seems like you're on the wrong end of the information chain. I saw the release at 6:30 EDT at my dealer. Actually it was a release to developers. This machine is out so wake up and start promoting it. Mabe you can use the sales. Peter Live from New…
Amiga 1200
Message #74098
All, I am wondering if any one else has heard of the release of the Amiga 1200. From what I understand is that this is a deffinate release and not a rumor. It has a 68020 running at 14MHz, 880K Floppy, 20 or 40 MB IDE dreive, WB3.0, and most…
Max, Do you know who the "BASEMENT BOYS" are. The Amiga 1200 HAS BEEN RELEASED!!!!!!!!!!!!! When I go across the pond, can I visit? Peter Live from New York on Autopilot
Amiga 1200 Released
Message #73988
All, DATELINE: OCT20,1992 NORTHPORT, L.I., NY Today I visited my local Amiga dealer (Amigo Business Computers), a place I visit at least three times a week, and began to use the Amiga 4000 that was displayed. "Wow"!, I said as I saw the potential of the graphics modes available. "Boy…
#New Amigas
Message #22692
All, It seems that a voice has been heard by both Spectrum Holobyte and Microprose. Both companies(mabe because they are working together) are currently looking at the Amiga 4000 (and Amiga 1200???? What is this??) and its AGA chipset and may come out with some hot games within 18 month.…
Greg, Glad to help with your problem. Hope you have great fun with your 4000 and boy do I envy you. Peter Live from New York on Autopilot
Max, I've been out a while so here's what I heard. A person on another network said he has an upgrade notice from Electronic Arts that states the new version of DP will support AGA on both the Amiga4000 and Amiga1200!!! Deduction tells us that mabe Commodore will announce this…
Keith, I don't think 3.0 can run on a 2000 because the ROM is 32bits wide and the 2.0 rom is 16bits wide. How could we fit a 3.0 ROM in a 2000 and if we can't how can we run 3.0? Peter Live from New York on Autopilot
Jim, Can it be that the next AGA machine will be the Imfamous A600 with AGA and a faster Processor. Oh please let this be true. A machine like that will revitalize the Amiga market and make life easier for all of us Higher end users. Guess great software might…
Max, Do you think that you might be able to get to the show at Frankfurt? That sounds like the place where things will be happening next. Next chance I get to see Commodore in action is at the WOCA in New York isn April. Should be some exciting `stuff'…
Amiga 4000 Clues
Message #73106
ALL, Checked out a 4000 at local dealer and all over it were clues for what we can expect. Check boxes marked Chip Ram 2MB or 8MB, Processor marked 68030, 68040, and others. If you own a 4000 now investigate this. Could be just what we are waiting for. I…

Max, Thanx for the info. It's good to see that there are people willing to listen even across the `pond'. Keep us Americans informed about that Frankfurt show. I'd like to see what new and exciting products Commodore has in store. Peter Live from New York on Autopilot
Greg, I don't have a 4000 (I'm broke from upgrading my 2000) bu I have worked on the 4000 at my local dealer. Try selecting a screen mode that is specifically marked NO FLICKER. This will enable the flicker free software and improve your display. The 4000 does not have…
Vic, I know that but I have a 2000 and will only benefit by buying 2.1 since 3.0 wont run on my computer. So does anyone know when 2.0 will be released? Peter Live from New York on Autopilot
Workbench2.1
Message #72910
All, I was wondering if anyone has heard of a release date for WB2.1. I,ve seen and used an Amiga 4000 for the past two weeks at my local Amiga dealer. Only thing is he has no idea when he will get a copy. Also, heard a rumor of the…
Final Copy II
Message #44856
Friends at Softwood, I have tried writing you via Email but have not recieved an answer. I have a problem. I recently moved and I am wondering if there is a way to get my upgrade notice sent to my new address. There is no longer a foward in effect…
Ian, I know it's available in the UK because it is advertised in Amiga Format. Check out the magazine it could be a real help. Also, mail oreder is cheaper here in the States, mabe it's cheaper over ther also.
Ian, Try Final Copy. It's a great program and costs about $59.00 US.
