$8f9|1-Isn't that the toy from Fisher Price?

The  system  which  will  be  used with TW will be the so called "Fisher
Price  Keyboard  for kids!?" - AKA "The A600".  The whole reason why, is
for  its compactness and portability.  I still have the A4000 in storage
but  since  I've  moved  to London for a full year of training, its much
more  convenient  to  carry  an A600 everywhere I go, from London tubes,
trains and even abroad!



$8f9|1-The Spec of this toy!

The  internal 3.5" IDE harddisk inside the A600 belongs to the A4000 and
everything  on  it  is  compatible.  The A600 consists of 2MB Chip + 8MB
Fast,  proper  AmigaOS3.1  chip  (not  some  image  grabbed from a ROM),
68020@28Mhz(+FPU),  1.1GB  internal  3.5" HD, two internal Pentium fans.
Last  the  appearance  of  the A600 seems like nothing has changed (only
that  df0:   has  been removed and sold).  Other extras include external
High  Density and SCSI CDROM drives.  Being non AGA would only sacrifice
a  few  games and demos (which isn't what I bought the A600 for).  Games
and  demos  were  never compatible with my A4000 and so nothing is lost.
The  ECS  display modes on the A600 are very capable for displaying very
high  quality  images.   Its  also  capable in rendering AGA screenmodes
using  Imaging  and  ADPRO etc....  Basically capable of everything just
like the A4000.

I might consider porting TW to the A4000 once I return to it at Sept/Oct
(after  completing  training  at  The Home Office).  It will be upgraded
with  the  new PPC and CyberGFX boards, Mpeg decoder, extra 32M SIMM, CD
autochanger,  new  tower  case,  new  hard  disk and some other possible
upgrades.  Proper link cables between A600 <>--<> A4000.  :)

My  one  and  only  wish:   No  work, no College, just hours of non-stop
coding and rendering on my Amigas.
