Title: Hard to Find Amiga Hardware @ Computer Connection
Post by: ldituri on January 18, 2010, 03:55:25 AM
Hello again fellow Amigans!
Once again, I have updated our hardware page to reflect some lower pricing in addition to some additional hardware items. Some of these pieces are very rare, and in mint condition!
Please give us another look and see if there's anything of interest to you.
Thanks to all those who have visited the site and thanks for your business.
P. S
I still have three copies of OS 4.1 for the A1 available at $129.95. If you want OS 4.1 at a great price, you better hurry. Because at midnight Monday,  the price returns to $159.95.

Congratulations on your desicion to lower some prices!
Let me give you some advice: When offering new in box hardware, add a picture or two to show the actual condition and contents of the package. It will be more appealing to potential customers.
Many things are now adequately priced, but others are still a bit too high :)

A better question would be what version of OS4.1 is this: A1 or SAM? It's not like Windows or OS X where you can just buy a copy of the OS an install it on whatever hardware you have.

Sunrize Studio 16 AD516  with 3.01 software and 2.0 Manual $499.00 Mint Condition Rare Find!

That is definitely an interesting card. Didn't realise Amiga's did multi track recording in that way.

In fact, audio is what attracted me to the Amiga. Having a recording studio at the time, and using half-inch tape for eight tracks was cool enough. However, once we were able to eliminate the tapes things got even better. Studio 16 allowed you to have multiple cards. So I always ran two cards in either the a3000 and then later the 4000. This gave me eight digital tracks, plus the ability to bounce many more. I have three of the cards right now, because I kept one as a backup. But the backup is the one that I placed on the board for sale. Very cool card, it's very difficult to get information on this product much less the software and actual manuals. Like the aforementioned the company just disappeared and to this day their disappearance has never been explained.
This and the video toaster, were the two most important pieces of hardware ever developed for the Amiga. Bar none!

And oh by the way, the tascam multitrack half-inch eight track recorder could easily cost over $5000.
Studio 16 AD516 was $1599.00
