The 20th century was clearly more fun

Yet another find for the "connoisseur". 

It appears that in the 1990s, not only C coders, but also video hardware geeks had a good sense of humour, and since they were both German, they naturally shared the same field of activity in that regard.

We have no reports if the "dirty" text file in question actually enhances the performance of the VLab Motion video capture card. It is very likely, though, that - where allowed - it did enhance the performance of the video editor.

Amiga C code for adults

Someone made a delicate little mistake when sending his C code to the publisher in 1990... 

Ah, good old German humour. Thankfully, no reference to the "adult" function in question could be found throughout the book, so it doesn't result in "premature failure" when bedtime-coding your "Amiga".

The dual-Blitt() function may cause some trouble, though, not just because it's dual, but also because no reference to BlittLine() could be found either.

Building Amiga 4000T (Part 2, Motherboard)

OK. You have the daughterboards done. this is quite essential as it helps the building process.
the A4000T is a “weird” solution with several DBs and if you ask me. feels very “hacky” you get a feeling Commodore was in a hurry doing this. It DOES fit in a standard AT Case. I guess that is a “improvement” from the 3000T. Anyways lets start building. This differs some from other amigas.

Building Amiga 4000T (Part 1, Daughterboards)

In my next step of buildguides. lets go to the Amiga 4000T.

As always. you need to follow my guide. This is not my project so see this as a “help” of building it. No support-center. and I will for sure NOT help you if you suddenly decided do go outside the guide. like adding extra components. other order or so. but this is “not supported”. I cannot help too much.

Obtaining components etc? well ebay? mouser? digikey? it is up to you to find them.

ok practical stuff done. lets gets started.
