(It Breathes) - Lending my uA1 to Olivier LAVIALE (status changed)

Ok here is the thing, I moved home in September last year and have been looking to buy a house and a lot of other things that meant that I didn't have time to use my Amiga. And its all come to a head lately, My fianc?e dislocated her knee in December and has had an operation on her knee. I'm buying a house (wednesday) and I getting married (July) the house is going to take up most of my time.

I've switched it on about 10 times since Christmas.

I was thinking of lending it or selling it. If I lent it out anyone I was thinking of lending it to the developer of feelin http://www.feelin.fr/ if he doesn't have one yet.

or I there was the idea of a developer board that gets shared around specific developers.

give me your ideas.

@aldur

I think it's a great idea to help get some more developers on board.

I assume you dont use the A1 for website work? :)

@aldur

I was going to suggest lending it to Paolo Cattani to get Virtual Grand Prix 2 ported, sadly it looks like he may abandoned it. I really hope I've got this wrong.

There's also Pixel32, seeing as ChainQ did the OS4 port of Free Pascal some time ago already.

@Rob

Ask to m3x for Virtual Grand Prix of Cattaneo

@aldur

Giving it to Feelin's author is a good idea. Or you can contact Radov on AW.net, he's porting Quake3 without having a next gen amiga.

@aldur

Great idea!

I'm sure that olivier will greatly appreciate such a gesture

Please give a friendly kiss to your fiancee for me and tell her to take care of her knees

@voxel

I will

@all

Anyone got olivers email PM me please

@mikey_C

Do you want to manage who has the board and for how long? maybe post it around.

Did you tried the email on this page ?

@abalaban

Email Sent thanks didn't even see that section (wood for the trees syndrome)

Hi @aldur

umm, Troels said--
Please remember that Marcin doesn't have an A1 yet and that Sputnik on MorphOS will have to be a bit more mature before he will begin work on the A1 port.

That would be the greatest person to help!

We'll love ya forever!

Well, I believe Troels already has secured the machine that is going to Marcin. See http://amigabounty.net/sputnik/sputnik.html - it says among other things:

Quote:
The machine just hasn't been delivered to Marcin yet (and I assume it won't be until he announces that he's ready to start the porting work).

Best regards,

@all

Just got an email from Oliver the creator of "Feelin" and I'm going to package up my uA1-c and send it off to him

so look forward to a fully developed OS4 version from him.

@aldur

wow! that's really GREAT!

Hi aldur,

You're awesome!

@All

IT'S DONE !!!! not to be confused with the "When Its done!!!" trademark of the Hyperion boys

Just posted my Amiga off to France cost me ?50 too but well worth it if we get a OS4 version of Feelin ported directly from the author. There is a better chance of getting the OS4 and OS3.x code to be more compatible. Hopefully this will give Oiliver the incentive to get back to programming Feelin again too.

When the new Amiga hardware comes out I'll see if I can afford to buy him his own board.

@aldur

i have no words for you generosity. <3 <3 <3

@aldur

Good job Aldur! If I didn't need my MicroA1-c for development of Mattathias Basic I'd probably do something similar.

@aldur

Thats very noble of you mate,
Have one on me -

Rude!

@Rudei

Well done! As Rudei said: VERY NOBLE!
