Wallstreet battery serendipity — #3

I know Amiga users with PCI busboard upgrades love the PCI Voodoo 5500 because they have drivers that support 3dfx. As far as keeping it or selling it, that depends what you will …

LC III+ or Classic II? — #6

The Classic II will also run (a special version of) System 6, under which it runs very fast indeed. Click to expand... That's 6.0.8L, correct? Where does one find this version?…
