Title: Wanted to Buy: Keyboard, Mouse and Joystick
Post by: irishmike on March 21, 2006, 04:23:18 PM
Greetings all:

I am looking for some parts for my A3000, hoped someone had them to sell.  I am willing to pay according to condition and prefer "like new" as possible.

The Parts I need are:

1. Keyboard
2. Pregnant or compatible mouse
3. Joystick
4. Max chipram
5. 1 MB Fast RAM
6. ZII or ZIII Ethernet card

The first three items I would like to obtain as inexpensively as possible and they are the most needed.

If you can help, pmail me here.  

NOTE:  I have been watching on Ebay, but the costs get out of hand so I prefer to do this sans-eBay.

Thanks,

Mike

Though it's not necessarily the cheapest way, you might want to look into getting PS/2 adapters for your keyboard and mouse solution.  This way you can use any PC keyboard or mouse - cheaper in the long run anyway.

Initially I thought of this and decided to just go the normal route since I do plan to purchase a new LCD monitor for my PC system, I will just keep the ol' SVGA for use with my A3000.

Hey Mike,
I have this (http://www.maj.com/gallery/LegoPete/Amiga/a3000_mouse_1.jpg) mouse (is it the famed pregnant mouse? - I never was entirely sure) and this (http://www.maj.com/gallery/LegoPete/Amiga/slikstik_01.jpg) joystick. They are both in good condition, a bit dusty. The mouse cord has a nick in it - seen here (http://www.maj.com/gallery/LegoPete/Amiga/a3000_mouse_3.jpg) but I think that only the shielding is slight cut. I can try out both units if you are interested. Make an offer - I'm just looking to clean up a bit and get rid of some stuff.

Pete

Yep, that's a preggy.  Very nice and smooth mouse.
