I'm confused. Your website shows lots of Amigas already in your collection. So what makes this find so special?
Or, are all those items in your collection no longer with you? 
All my Amigas are special. Thing is I can only have so many machines out at any one time. Most are in storage. I get gifted large collections and in 2010 around the time I got the KIM I had to debunk a whole section of my workshop because a guy gave me a whole atic full of Amiga kit. I must have put this workstation away and it dropped to the bottom of a pile. So it was switched off, stored and then forgotton. Along with the Amiga 1000. The pile it was in was listed as Dreamcast, Nintendo and ancient Japanese console items and I had forgotten all about it.
I have been struggling these last few days with camera issues as I am unable to replicate images similar to those I had with the Epson. I gave up in the end and have now purchased another Epson off Ebay. But I needed the cables. Luck would have it I could see the old camera through the plastic large case at the bottom of a stack of boxes. My surprise was finding the Amiga and all complete with the drives, mouse, cables etc. So it was fingers crossed cus these external SCSI drives can be very flakey.
It just amazes me when I fire up the Amiga it always works. And then I have the joy of seeing a snapshot of my life for a period of time. And then all the memories flood back. This computer was very active from around 2002 to 2010 and has all my YAM mail for the various groups along with all the files for that period. So dipping into the pool is just so magical.
Also playing Valhalla was cool along with Sensi and a few other games. My icon collection is also on the machine. I did have to get the computer working in the early days and fit the Blizzard and add the external drives and stuff. She is a bit of a beast as the inside was hacked by the previous owner. It is an Amiga 1200 labelled as HD and I think it must be an Escom model.
Anyway.... I have like over 25 Amiga 1200s. Probably my favourite machine. I do collect computers and I do get gifted a lot. So I can get confused and lost a bit as to what is what. But I am in Aladins cave here every day and its always fun tripping over computers. I have hundreds, if not close to a thousand.
And they are all very special..... This week I have been mostly getting an Amiga 500+ working again and that has been a different but equally magical experience. Next week it will be something else. How lucky am I ?
