Last time I used my Amiga 1200 (towered and 68040 accelerated) I was surprised how fast it was compared to many far newer PCs

wyliecoyoteuk (12/04/2008) Last time I used my Amiga 1200 (towered and 68040 accelerated) I was surprised how fast it was compared to many far newer PCs Of course. If only my Commodore 128 would have an email client (it can be networked), and a few other bits and pieces, I wouldn't be using this Win XP PC whatsoever.
I do have an A1200, which I may upgrade at a future point in time. I hope ;-)

There is an excellent A1200 PCMCIA Network card/software combo being sold on ebay on a regular basis, and YAM is still available for the Amiga classic.

Hi,
I know there has been some experimenting into networking a Sinclair ZX Spectrum, but that is new hardware hacks and so on, and not old dial-up 300baud or so modems.
I'll do some digging to see what hardware would allow connecting a Speccy to a modern network.
Regards,
Shaun.
