Thx - it was just some sort of standard HDD for Amiga 500 - cannot remember anything specific about it... . Can it be that the Amiga 500 had in its case a place for a HDD? (I don't remember using external cases, but maybe I have forgot

1) So, the wavelength is basically its "energy"? 2) Therefore "momentum" needs only "energy" and velocity instead of "mass" and velocity?

I owned an Amiga 500 and at a certain point I bought for it a HDD (20 MBs, if I remember correctly) => then later I switched to an IBM-compatible (386sx with a HDD) and, subjectively, I thought that the HDD of the IBM-compatible was slow

Sorry, here comes probably the usual question asked whenever somebody talks about "light": if I point a flashlight at an object, does the target object move (in theory, if no other external force exists) because of the light hitti

I am a hardcore Linux&Lenovo fan, but I agree with the statement "the best mac to replace another mac is still a mac" (keeping the target user in mind - changing OS has a major impact).

I've as well always been happy with Lenovos. I'm currently using an X1 Carbon (4th gen, FHD screen, ~6-7hrs battery) and a P71 (4k screen, in-built nVidia disabled, ~4-6hrs battery) and their fans run only when I'm stressing
