Title: Selling my A3000 OS S3.1 roms, 18MB
Post by: sdyates on July 27, 2006, 10:38:02 PM
After reading a few posts, I am beginning to wonder if I should have sold the A3000 with 2.1 on it... I would love to get a CD Rom hocked up...

But anyhows, anyone interested in an A3000 can find it on ebay -- it's due to close tomorrow at 10h00 EDT.

Just a side note, do the 1200s come with a HD?

What do you mean by that? My A3000 runs 3.1 and I've had several CD-ROMs running on it.

Anyways, a link or ebay auction ID is usually a nice addition to a post like this.

Sorry folks, a little sleep deprived here.

On the A3000 I am keeping, I wish I had a CD ROM - I have heard that OS 3.1 supports a CD-ROM and that 2.1 requires a bit more work to get one working.

I am keeping the A3000 with AmigaDos 2.1 because it works with a lot more legacy software.

Holy crap 90 dollars shipping.

Thats a little excessive

You might have gotten more bids if the shipping was close to actual.

I'm sure that he'll come up with plenty of reasons for the excessive shipping price:

- it takes a long way to get to the post office
- it sucks having to pack the items up
- gas prices
- global warming
- war in Iraq
- the local crime rate

etc.
