KICKTOS: Kickstart disk for the Amiga 1000 with Atari TOS

[crammage]

i have one anybody want to buy it?

[dmrvf]

WTF how did u do that

[thx1979]

GEM lives.

[RibNSpicY]

So in theory, you could run this KickTOS on a Amiga 1200 with 2mb of RAM and be ably to run any ST you like? Hell i bet you could even run it on a A500 with a meg of RAM?

[KayserIllumina]

Hell, an Amiga 4000 with a 68060 upgrade can even run Windows 95 albeit slowly :P

[meowmmmmm]

Amiga is the root of all sloppy programming!

[doritostheking]

@meowmmmmm That's the most ironic thing ever. I mean TOS/GEM come on now.

[H2oCooling]

I still love my amiga... 

[mdomenech2001]

Nice Music!!

[kimosaaaabe]

do you have this available anywhere? I need to test some old atari software...

[latarteauxconcombres]

Where is the TOS Kickstart Disk for A1000?

[scimnk]

You're doing it wrong.

[zaphodb777]

The ST was essentially a 16 bit C=64.

The Amiga was essentially a 16 bit 800XL.

All hail Jay Miner!

It's no wonder the Amiga could run TOS then. (Waiting for the bloody screams from C=64 fans.)

[richardmaudsley77]

@zaphodb777 Nah, it's more like what a C64 would be if it was designed specifically to be built with components ANY company could have got in the 80s, as the ST was actually a Tramel Tech project before Tramiel bought out Atari Consumer.

[allah4ever]

Offh... those were the days when computing was fun....*sigh*

[kimosaaaabe]

ST sound was 3 square waves and a 'white noise' channel.....

[j03shaw]

That's pretty cool!

[Gradius0]

The biggest problem with Amiga vs Atari ST is the chip sound, they (Amiga) forgot to include a channel dedicated for SFX, it should be 5 channels and not just 4 at least. Two them are for left and other for right, with SFX begin mixed on both channels. Believe or not, w/o SFX it was a big design fail, since they used those computers 95% for games.

[richardmaudsley77]

@Gradius0 4 channels of quality beats 5 channels of shite.

[dezent]

blasphemy!

[rkauer123]

Ahahah, a humble A1000 running the crappy Atari OS. This will finally show those losers what machine is superior. Atari is just a 2600 system with a keyboard and never was anything better than this.

[porcorosso81]

@rkauer123

Umm, the Atari 2600 is actually the grandfather of the Amiga. Both had the same designers, and the 2600 video chip (TIA), believe it or not, has quite a lot of things in common.

[bobbystar101]

@rkauer123 your a dumbass

and grow up lol

[richardmaudsley77]

Go back in time and show this to atari owners, They'd switch over immediately. GEM was cool though.

[PlappyPlapPlap]

Good stuff!

[cooldude76pl]

Amigas was always better than ST.

[trophy242]

Hehe... Atari ST with Amoeba marriage. Great! :-)

[gibs2b]

yeah

[TengriAsura]

Amiga is the main foundation of today's computers. All hail Amiga!

[SaganAppreciationSoc]

How much Atari ST stuff can it run?

Can you run the ST software-only Mac emulator on this Amiga running TOS?

[r8qt7]

obviously nothing which needs the special atari chipset ... but this is really fun.

I like the grey TOS very much - it's relaxing ...

[Ahle2]

Awesome !!

Where can i get it ?

Is it possible to make it run on my Blizzard 1260 with kickstart remapping ?
