@Sister_Rita
Why not just buy the games and use WHDLoad for it
Though you still need the CD32 or A1200/A4000 rom to play
those games...they are available on the AmnigaForever CD,
at least it's less pricey and far less difficult to obtain

Did GVP ever make an IDE expansion for the A500? I am desperate to find one. I don't want scsi.

You can hack an Amiga power plug onto a cheap PC PSU too.
An AT psu is easy and cheap (can be even free) to get and there're plenty of diagrams how to wire the A1200 power cable to it. However the fact that removal of the accelerator didn't help is a bad sign... Jack

I also don't understand why anyone would program a virus or trojan horse to attack an Amiga system. Unfortunately, Amigas have become very rare, so it isn't really worth the effort to design a trojan horse I think. 
Why sister?  Because they can......it will happen.

I have never owned a CD32 console, but now I am really considering to buy one! Only from the outer appearance, I would always prefer the Amiga CDTV. You can stack it together with your stereo equipment near the television and nobody will notice that it's a computer! But the technical specifications of the Amiga CD32 are better. Do you know what would be great? An Amiga CD32 in the case of an Amiga CDTV. Unfortunately, this is not possible.

Great! Is that a GVP A530 expansion? I am using one of those too! With which processor speed is your expansion equipped? Mine has a 68030 processor running at 40MHZ.
In my opinion, this is one of the best hardware devices ever made for the old Amiga. Great Valley Products was one of the most respected Amiga companies.
Did you know that these expansions have become extremely rare nowadays? They are very expensive when you buy them second hand. You better keep the Amiga in a safe place.
Reminds me the old days when I had an a500+a590 (afair) with 2MB of ram and extra 0.5 onboard modded to be swtchable to act as chip of fast ram. 3MB in total. It First I had an XT 20MB HD, then dumped it for 40MB scsi one and felt like riding a race car. On the pain 68000. When compared to it, 386 with windblows 3.1 felt like pulling a cart with stones in it. Jack

However, the "dongle code" is stored in the U-Boot ROM and is checked to make sure the OS is running on an A1 and not some other hardware.
This is very much like the Kickstart and Workbench Disk scenario we have with the classic Amiga. Is it not possible for Amiga to port OS4 to an FPGA board with a soft PPC - like the uC-Linux boards I see selling for $160? Amiga Inc could license a dongle for it.

I know where you're coming from. I had all my eggs in the TI 94/A basket and then TI abandoned us all to oblivion. Luckily the Amiga came along at an opportune point but not before I had invested some, not inconsiderable, amount of money into the Texas.

Nothing like that can happen under OS4. Even hacking utilities like NMAp can't identify
the host operating system, let alone try to attack OS4.
True and it's good. But that's easy. No other AOS had an open port (no tcp/ip stack). And I don't thing they (nmap) bothered collecting any identification of any network service available on AOS. Quote: Also, not having any open port by default, does certanly help. However it's certainly not sufficient. Every protocol has to have the highest (if it is possible) security-wise level. Quote: For the record, I've been running an A1 on the internet for the last 4 years, with a STATIC ip address and without any kind of firewall.
Never had a "security" problem. A bit paranoid look on this: it is good untill something happens Jack
