I'd be very positive that auction belongs to Xenepp from this tread...  Minimig PCB run - interest thread (http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=30516)

I've already recieved my minimig board from him, but I know he said a couple of weeks ago there was at least one left that was unclaimed. I can only guess that he added the other other Amiga model numbers to increase the hits on his auction link.

If it is a minimig V1.0 or V1.1 PCB then calling it Amiga 1200 is false advertising as these revs are incapable of AGA video.  IIRC the only minimig that may be capable of AGA is the DE2 version.

ROFL, mark up the PCB price or what, the BOM and instructions are available from Dennis's website.

(This is all assuming Xenepp is the seller here.)

As far as I know, this is a board left over from the first small batch of V1.1 minimigs ever run. Unfortunatly by the time they could be deliverd due to Postal strikes and Xenepp's health, other boards were available at a better price. Xenepp said the small run (10 perhaps?) was expensive and he was selling pretty much at cost recouping what he spent. I bought one and if he made a few pounds on the deal, good for him. Other batches since Xenepp's from other folks are coming in at better prices and that's good for the rest of us. Is he trying to stiff some one one the price? Probably not. More likely he's wondering what madness ever made him decide to make minimigs. :-P
