I haven't seen a thread dedicated to talking about these products and wondered if anyone has any experience with them?

Have you bought / used one?

What about the diagnostic ROM? any demos out there?

Have you tried to FLASH one yourself?

(I have one on the way)

Hey Goose

Funny you ask that. I just picked up "GGLABS F2R16 - Preflashed with Amiga ROM diagnostic DiagROM 1.0 for A500/A2000" about a week ago, but I haven't had a chance to check it out yet. I'm about to go on vacation for almost two weeks, so it's going to sit for a bit. But I read about it and I have much respect for the guy who wrote the code. If I had all of the other parts, I could have flashed it for free, but I don't. So I got one pre-flashed and ready to go.

I mainly got it as a future diagnostic tool - I don't really need it right now. But I feel like with these old machines this kind of stuff is a form of insurance.

That sounds good, maybe when the chance comes you'll follow up about the diagnose ROM. I might get my ROM by weekend, It is going to be flashed with the Hyperion image for 500/600/2000 3.1 :

It was like 12 bucks so, I grabbed a set. Good for WinUAE too.

Enjoy the Vacay !

You guys should have asked. I could have programmed ROMs for you ;)
