Amiga purity test : Comment 2 of 16 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Colin Wilson on 19-Aug-2000 22:00 GMT | I scored about the same, but lied (with all the best intentions) on one (linked) question...
I haven`t bought the SDK *yet*, despite knowing sod all about coding in C, although i`m daft, and probably will for the hell of it :-)
I was also naughty enough not to tick the last question "did you lie to increase your score" - because in effect, I do intend to buy the SDK, so it isn`t a "real" lie ! |

Posted by Martin Baute on 19-Aug-2000 22:00 GMT | 42,4%... which I consider being rather good given the fact I had to say "no" to questions 1 to 6 because I don´t own any Amiga hardware anymore! |

Posted by Michael Jantzen on 19-Aug-2000 22:00 GMT | A lot of those questions applied to me better in 92/93/94 when I was more of an Amiga advocate. I mean I can't honestly advocate the amiga for being a great all round desktop computer for everyone anymore - mostly because of lack of hardware and software options these days :(.
Hopefully all that will change!

Posted by Dirk Baeyens on 19-Aug-2000 22:00 GMT | 69.6 % is not bad i think. :)
But some of the questions are
outdated and there are some
present questions missing. ;) |

Posted by mr_W on 20-Aug-2000 22:00 GMT | People, did you actualy read what 'purity' does mean ?
100% Amiga pure is not same as 100% pure Amigan .
It is quite opposite. |

Posted by [G]NiOB on 20-Aug-2000 22:00 GMT | In reply to Comment 8 (mr_W): You ALL should give your Amiga Corrupt ratings!!!
I got about 35%. Which is alright, I suppose.
What is a CDTV II? |

Posted by Henrik Mikael Kristensen on 20-Aug-2000 22:00 GMT | In reply to Comment 9 ([G]NiOB): A CDTVII is the successor (surprise!) to the CDTV. It had the same stereo-rack-style case but with the buttons slightly rearranged.
I don't recall the specs, but I believe it was KS 2.0 based with a 68020. There have only been 2-3 of them produced so they are exceptionally rare.
Anyway, I knew this and I was about 44% corrupt! :-) |

Now I just need somebody to tell me what this means. :) |

I used to have one.
It was actualyl called teh CDTV-CR. CR for Cost Reduced.
It was the same style case, but also had a removable panel at the front for mouning a floppy drive, as well as a tray-load 2x CD-ROM drive, and more 'stuff' on the LCD panel.
Also, it was an 8MHz 68000 with 1 meg of CHIP RAM. There were also two brand new, never used anywhere else chips on the board.
It was ALL surface mount.
It had a header for a 2.5" IDE drive.
Also had a newer version of the CDTV-ROM. You noticed a "2" down in the corner of the boot screen. The CD-Player options were pretty much the same.
Slick unit that never got marketed.
There were about 40 of them around the world. I ditched mine in an auction a while ago. |

Posted by darthanoia on 21-Aug-2000 22:00 GMT | In reply to Comment 12 (Anonymous): Here is the result of your Amiga Purity Test.
You answered "yes" to 51 of 78 questions, with a total value of 54 points out of 85, making you 36.5% Amiga pure (63.5% Amiga corrupt.
How nice! :-)
I hope someone can put together a 500 point Amiga purity test (with 500 questions no less).

Posted by DanDude on 21-Aug-2000 22:00 GMT | In reply to Comment 14 (DanDude): This is what the author stated:
No....with purity being defined by the amount of things you hadn't done, the same
method is used for all purity tests, despite being a bit confusing....
Still it's just a bit of fun :)

scored 72.9% pure. |
