It ran arexx scripts for an automation project. Had intended to upgrade to latest OS to use machine for "daily driver", now looking into emulation.

I personally think it is a fair price for what you have. However, that it is apart and not in anoriginal case may cause many to obstain from bidding.

I considered parting it out, but it would be great for a tower hack or rackmount case for someone with the skills. To my knowledge it only needs the ROMs upgraded to run OS 3.9.

I tell everyone this, Keep it!

You will so very much miss it and there are times when you will just want to power it back on again ;)

It was mounted in an industrial rack case that used to contain an ISA backplane. The amiga chassis pan slid right in after removing a bit of metal from where the 20 ISA cards would of gone. Under this were four 5 1/4 drive bays accessable from the front, an AT power supply and room for the micropolis drive.
