He needs to give in to the wedge! It wouldn't take much to make it look good, but he's gotta be efficient with filament. It's his way. His first design is just a tad too angular. We trade emaild pretty often, I'm going to bug him again about this. I love his Parceiro goals and it's nice to imagine how much others would too. I ended up getting his ParceiroMax Memory first. I want the Parceiro 2 but I'm waiting until I have a finished Rejuvenator to buy one.

He hasn't settled on enclosure designs at this time. But he's working on it.

Honestly, if he wanted to ever make this a legit business and not just a hobby, the Parceiro + A500 market.. .dang.
Glad he is working on it and for sure. Tons of A500s that could use this.

I received my Parceiro// from David recently, and he was an absolute delight to work with, makes an amazing product, and such a benefit to the community ❤️

David is awesome. He suffers my emails and entertains my ideas about his devices. It's hard not to like someone who thoughtfully replies to my rambling. That and he's earnest and cares about our community !

This is my first post :)

In my opinion David is an exceptional engineer, whose talent and intelligence are evident in his work. He has a keen eye for detail, and he takes pride in his work. His expertise in the field of Amiga is unparalleled, and his contributions to our hobby are invaluable.

There are other very talented individuals also within this field, but what truly sets David apart is his willingness to go the extra mile to help others. He is always willing to take the time to respond to emails in length and detail. This is a trait that is becoming increasingly rare in today's fast paced world where people often prioritise speed over quality and that's if you ever get a response in the first place - As the poster before me said our ramblings and demands are somehow processed and always responded too.

From my interaction with him I can tell you David has commitment to excellence and always goes the extra mile out of his way to help - I know he has helped me a bunch of times - This is why he is so respected by everyone.

In short, David is a rare gem in the world of Amiga. His talent, intelligence, and helpfulness make him a valuable asset to the world of Amiga, and his attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile set him apart from others.

If you have an A1000 you need a Parceiro II it's as simple as that - If you already own one and have any ideas with it - no matter how crazy drop him a note!

Hi !

I searched a lot about how to get a parceiro for my Amiga 1000 or how to build one on my own, but i found nothing... So I ask here.

- How to get a prebuild parceiro ?

- Is this an open project, so i can build the Hardware on my own ?

David's e-mail address can be found at the bottom of the very first posting in this thread.

No, it's not an open project.

Hello!
Does anyone know of a 68030 turbo card that works in combination with Rejuvenator and Parceiro2?
I have already tested the TerribleFire 536 and the Matze030 TKv2. Both work with the Rejuvenator, but as soon as you plug the Parceiro2 into the Amiga 1000 it no longer works.
I am grateful for any advice.

I don't think that's possible. It's like you're trying to run two accelerators at the same time and it really wants there to be only one.

Now, it may be possible to use a non-II+ version of Parceiro. I used to use a 14Mhz AdSpeed + Rejuvenator when the Parceiro didn't have the accelerator piece. In my 2nd A1000 setup I actually still run that setup: 2mb Rejuvenator, 14Mhz AdSpeed, Microbotics StarDrive (the newer one by Chris Brenner) and 8MB modern SLAM RAM.

In fact a while back I shipped David an ICD AdSpeed and that little accelerator became the basis for his mad scientist innovations towards inventing the Parceiro II+ and get it up to 28Mhz! It's built off the same concept, just much better. He really has squeezed just about every drop possible that you can put through that expansion port.

I think if you want to use a totally different accelerator, you're going to need to get an older version of the Parceiro - or a different storage/ram/clock solution altogether. That said, I have no idea how the 030's libraries would play with the Parceiro at all. I doubt David has ever gone down that road, either. I could be wrong but I'd be surprised.
