In a box of old stuff, I found paperwork for my Amiga 3000 purchase in 1990 through the Commodore Educational Purchase Plan. It included a serial number, CA100515, so I'm curious if my original Amiga is still out there somewhere.
I sold it about 20+ years ago when I had a chance to get an A3000T. The included picture is from 1999. She was painted black with a red button when sold. Inside, the drive bay was modified to fit the fan & heat sink on a CSPPC that I was using. So only the left floppy bay was used. Since she was an early 25mhz model, she had a ROM tower. The 2nd A3000 picture is circa 2001 and shows with the lid off. You can see the hole in the drive bay, and apparently I rigged something to get an elevated HD in there.
If you have this A3000, let me know.
