Wow, what a wealth of info! You guys are great, especially Plaz, you ROCK. (the sound card spot was nice!)
Maybe it's something about reminiscing on old times, but I swear I'm like a kid in a candy store in wanting to get my hands on this 20 year old machine. Of course I have to remember this is an "Amiga grab bag" of sorts--I have little clue what condition this setup is going to be in (the slight rust on the ports has me a bit worried). I still can't wait.
As a side note: I'm thinking the lack of bidding on the auction surely had to do with the local pickup requirement. It's funny I just moved up to Chicago from Dallas when I saw this, so I called my cousin to pick it up for me. I'm sure shipping is going to be high... BTW: Why would anyone need an old Paintjet? Are compatible printers that hard to come by?
I'm not worried about doing anything with the toaster, really. I like having it, but I'm a damn programmer.
This is turning into a long post, sorry!
/me waves back to ZeBeeDee! I've been to the UK, though it was 18 years ago--in fact, I visited a fellow Amiga junkie in Cardiff. Beautiful country!
Rabbi: I'd be very interested, bro. I have a co-worker who drives in from Skokie. I'm in Hoffman, not that far away.
Like I said: kid in a damn candy store.
