Cool stuff. I was financially strapped about 1.5 years ago - and I sold my old 
Amiga 1000 - which had a Whole bunch of stuff like RAM upgrades (6MB for 
potential to 10MB - even though initial RAM pack in front was only 256KB) , 
external HD & some cool CG SW. Your comment made me bummed I sold that sucker. 
Oh well...

Having recently resurrected my Amiga 4000 I can confirm.
Some old floppies refuse to format.
