Hi guys,

Today I received a new upgrade for my Amiga 1200, a 128MB EDO 60NS 72-PIN SIMM, that I bought from a nice seller on AmiBay. 🙂

The memory module is quite slim, so it was very easy to install it in my Microbotics 1230 XA accelerator.

Here’s a few pictures of the SIMM and my turbo-card:

I’ve never had this much memory in my Amiga before. The most I’ve had in the past was 32MB of RAM. 🙂

Now over to something completely different..

Since I’ve got the opportunity, I’d like to mention a post by my friend StiGGy about Wolfenstein 3D. It turns out that this game will become 20 years old in the near future! 🙂 Because of this, I thought I’d better look into some Amiga ports of the game. I downloaded a recent one from Aminet.net (AWolf3D.lha) and gave it a go. The performance was not great on my setup and it ran slower than the various Doom-ports I’ve tried, but it was playable when I scaled the screen a bit down. I might be able to download a few utilities to speed up my setup as well, so that should help. Anyway, it was fun to see this game running on the Amiga after all those years.

Happy anniversary Wolfenstein 3D! 😀

Before I stop writing, I’d like to mention that I’m still working on the videos I’ve talked about in previous posts. I’m not satisfied with the quality yet and I think I should get some kind of equipment to hold the camera in place. My hands are shaking a bit when filming and it is also difficult to use the mouse/keyboard at the same time. 😉

Have a good weekend folks and many thanks for reading!
