Elbox: Black MEDIATORS Available

[Darrin]

@ Kreciu:  I've got one in my A4000.  Great piece of kit.  I've got the Radeon card with most of the card's RAM assigned to the system and a great 1920x1080 Workbench.  I have two "Spider" USB cards and a Soudblaster 128 taking up the PCI slots.  On the Zorro side I have a FastATA board for all of my drives and I need to see if I can cram my Emplant card in there too.

My point is that there is new market for "new old hardware" for Amiga computers.

Ah, with you.  I think the main problem is that big box A3000/4000 Amigas are becoming harder to find in working order and the A1200 needs to be in a tower for the Mediator.  So, I don't think there is a new market, just us old farts who want to squeeze a bit more performance out of our trusty old machines.

I dunno, man.  I'm waffling on it.  I have a 4000D with a Picasso IV and a Deneb USB.  I have a difficult time justifying it for this system since between these two cards I have everything I need.

Now, if I were to go on a hoarder rampage, I might to build another desktop system or to hold onto as the collectible value will inevitably increase and some collector might pay me a nice premium in the future.

I guess.  In any case, I'm just not compelled right now.  Not saying I couldn't be persuaded for that price, but I just can't bring myself to it.

I justified mine because it allowed me to put my Deneb and Cybervision643D in my A2000.
