The pics of the 2000 box, keyboard, and mouse don't look TOO bad. But the monitor, awg.

Damn, I've been looking for one of those table cloths for sometime now!

I wonder if was the winning bidder if I could get the seller to throw away the Amiga and just ship me the table cloth for $40.00.

Regards,

It has a ROM Switcher in it?
It has a high density floppy drive with converter board in it?
The 1080 is a cool monitor if you like to watch the phosphor trails follow your mouse around the screen?
The $40 shipping price is fair?

I guess that's all I could come up with. :-)

The monitor looks like that cause TJ spit up his coffee all over the picture when he first saw the auction pics... :)

its tough to tell how the case really looks because the pics are so poor, but pristine isnt the word that comes to mind anyway. the one pic of the card that looks like it has dust on it is pretty clean. the pic not the card :-D
