Got a tip from a friend on the net of someone selling an Amiga 4000 and 1084 monitor near me, pick up only. So I sent a mail and told him I could come and buy the package, no problemos.
Earlier this week I got the go ahead and Monday this week I got on a [...]

This is supposed to be an Indivision AGA A4000/CD32 review but since the scandoubler is the same design as the A1200 version what could be said about that version can be said about the A4000 version, get one, it is without doubt the best scandoubler/flickerfixer for the AGA Amiga computers.
This version only works in the [...]

Can you spot the fault on this CyberStormPPC Amiga 3000/4000 accelerator?

Wow, this weekend have been one of the most intense Amiga weekends in a long time from a personal view.
Amiga Friday
Last Friday I went to pick up my Deneb USB2 card for my Amiga 4000. I was actually expecting to have it fully installed and running in my trusty A4000 in one hour, top two [...]

I received a Deneb USB 2.0 card for my Amiga 4000 today. I thought I would write a short review today after an hour of playing with it or so, however I have forgotten that back when “computers used to be fun”, plug and play did not exist
Please, do not tell anyone I [...]

I went through my harddrive looking for old Webprojects and I found some pictures I snapped when I tried to convert an Amiga 500 keyboard into an external keyboard.
I never finished the job because I got an A4000 quite soon after beginning the project which came with an original external Amiga keyboard.
Once upon a time [...]

I am typically always impressed by the German Amiga scene, nobody hacks hardware more hardcore than German Amiga fanatics and I do not think there is any place outside Germany with more badass bad to the bone, power packed, action packed, muscle packed hardcore x-treme Amiga systems oozing with liquid nitrogen needed to cool down [...]

I have been promising myself to purchase a Deneb USB 2.0 card for my Amiga 4000 for close to a year now, finally I gave in and decided to get one!
It was a tough decision since I have wanted to get an Indivision for my A4000 for quite some time too, however I guess there [...]

In my last post I wondered if there were any switch solutions for automatically switch between AGA/ECS/OCS and graphics board output out there, witch at the moment there were none.
I solved the problem in one of my A4000 system by attaching an old Bmon manual monitor switch, you might remember the Bmon switches that Eyetech [...]

Anyone know of any automatic monitor switch solutions for a graphics board based Amiga system?
In my A4000 system I have a manual Eyetech Bmon monitor switch so I can switch between AGA and CGFX screenmodes, a working solution but an automatic switch is so much nicer IMHO.
I can not think I am the only one [...]

I have decided to clean up my Amiga 4000 internally. It is a busy system under the hood with cables all over the place hindering air flow and makes my Amiga run hotter than it should do.
I am running a BMon monitor switch (originally made by Eyetech) inside so that I can switch manually between [...]
