Title: Amiga compatible joystick
Post by: Strangedisk on August 20, 2006, 07:00:32 AM
You know you want one:

Amiga joystick (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=019&item=290021212629&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1)

Mouse coming soon.

On a side-note, I bought this computer almost entirely because its case reminded me of an Amiga 3000.  

Maybe even get an Amiga 1200 motherboard into it?

Cool Mini-ITX case (most beautiful computer case ever made) (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=019&item=290020841830&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1)

Thanks everyone.  Meanwhile, someone has already bid on my Amiga Workbench and other disks:

If it was someone in Amiga.org, thank you.  If not, outbid them!  :lol:

Thanks, everyone.

Hah, no I was thinking more in terms of friendly competition.  

I'll be shocked if I get more than five or ten bucks off of this old stuff (obviously excluding the Hush case), but I figured, better to get it to someone who may find it useful than throw it out.  Respect for the old girl I suppose but in the end, to me, it's now just stuff taking space.  I've discovered that I get no nostalgic feeling at all anymore over Amigaish things, and once that halo effect is gone, it's just old stuff.

I am still into AROS, but mostly because I consider it cool right NOW (open source, full GUI interface, memory efficiency, simplicity) than for some bygone age.

If it doesn't sell at all, even with bidding starting at $1, then I'll know the truth, which is no one else really cares either, in which case I can trash it guilt-free.

Either that or Hawai`i is just too far away from anyone to reasonably consider shipping something to them  :-P
