Amiga In-Active
For some reason I have never been a big fan of the CD on the
Amiga. Even following the demise of CU Amiga and the launch
of Amiga Active, when CD just was all there was, I just never
bothered. Its not like I don't have many... I have shelves
of the things, but, I just never use them.
I have loads and loads of CDs filled with Amiga related programs
and games and articles. I have a large collection of CD32 games
plus any number of PD disks, Aminet volumes, demo CDs etc. But
I still prefer the good old floppy or at a stretch the ZIP.
And so for me the CD's tend to be 'in-active' rather than what
the name suggests on the labels below.
The very last CU Amiga
Shelves full of Amiga CDs
Shelves full of Amiga CDs
Stacked piles of Amiga CDs
'Amiga Stuff' - I have tubs full of Amiga
related CDs and I doubt I ever look at them
My beloved Chant Amiga 1200 which has been
active since Nov 93. SCSIKit on Blizzard IV
running external SCSI ZIP, 2 x SCSI hard drives
CD-ROM drive. PCMCIA ethernet networked and running
on a Samsumg flat screen. The BBC-B also uses the
same flat screen monitor. The Amiga external XL HD drive
sits on top of the BBC external 5.25" drive. All work.
