Fantastic.

FWIW, I moved the Amiga 4000 back into my office yesterday but I didn’t get to hook it up yet, this will happen on Monday.

I have also lots of test hardware now:

 * Cybervision 64
 * Cybervision 64/3D
 * Retina Z-3
 * 2x X-Surf100
 * 3x Buddha IDE Controller

The Buddha will be used for the libata porting by Bartolomej (I hope I spelled his name correctly) from Samsung.
