Almost flawlessly i.e. occasional flicker (you see your desktop in low res for a second) when you scroll. Changing res may fix it. Didn't bother to troubleshoot since it was so rare.

But I did only a test run for like half an hour. So I don't know if that's enough to say it works.

Important is that you have DirectPlay legacy support activated (need reboot)

Let me tell you something. FUCK G4. Fuck it. We had something wonderful. And it was called TechTV. G4 Ruined Everything.

I went to New York State on a Craigslist ad for an Amiga 2000. Ended up getting that and an Atari ST something where the computer is separate from the keyboard and an external hard drive for it. A box of Amiga software and three Atari monitors. I still haven't got a keyboard for the Atari yet. They're not cheap. The Amiga 2000 had a leaky battery that took out the cpu socket. It should be savable. But now I'll also have to buy another CPU for it. I've had it on hold for a very long time now and bumbed into it and the cpu's pins got smashed pretty good. Althouh it probably need to be replaced anyway.

I've got two Amiga 1200's one of which had an upgrade card and a hard drive. Before something crashed. Not sure yet what it is. I haven't spent the time on it yet. I saw where it had a porn website listing program for the internet on the amiga. Was pretty neat and took me way back to when I was 11 or 12 and dial up internet porn.

>Also have a two Amiga 500's. I've spent the most time with these two. Played some games. One of them was a neat racing game that had decent 3d graphics. The games for the Amiga 500 reminds me of the Japanese exclusive titles for the Famicom Disk System.

>I've bought some ide to flash card adapters and some 4gb Flash cards but have yet to install them either. Someday.

>Anybody have any advice or websites they'd like to recommend when trying to upgrade or repair these items?

They knew their place, you had to be cool and hip to target the teenagers. Nowadays they try to target us mature 33 year old women.

Oh wow. You can't believe how many times I've heard on /v/ how this generation of consoles will be the last because of PCs. System wars never change.
