Title: A4000 fully loaded
Post by: AeroMan on November 17, 2007, 02:49:11 PM
I've found this at a local auction site. It is really expensive for me, but my mission is to let the comunity know  :-D

It has everything an Amigan needs to be happy!

All I see is a MC-1000 computer... which an Amigan doesnt need to be happy, he needs more Amiga's.

Are you talking about the large ebay add at the bottom?

Ooops, really sorry for that...

CTRL+C and CTRL+V sometimes goes wrong when you are doing more than one thing at the same time
This is the right link:

(I'm happy with my MC1000. But I would be happier with this A4000. Not enough money :-( )

Seems like a very well stocked tower system, probably worth the price, but 5200 is a lot in any currency, except roubles and lire :lol: although italy now uses the ecu, so problem solved.

However I do not like all those coloured stickers on the front.

This was for sale a little while back but at that time, it wasn't available to the rest of the world. Dunno if it is now - I cant read Brazillian!

It doesn't say nothing about shipments to other countries. It is a local site.
Try emailing the seller. There is a link to his site in the end of the page

Sorry - but the currency is called "Euro (€)" - ECU didn't make it...

How about using an appropriate cleaning spray to etch and remove them?

In the conservation world it is thought to be wrong to change what is there, so removing the stickers could be considered vandalism, possibly ruining the appeal of the machine to future owners.

Am I reading that right as almost $5000 Australian? It can't be. Can it?

I think I'll pass.

You'll get the euro eventually, trust me...  :-D
(and you'll probably lose your mile and right-hand drive someday as well...)

At over 5200 Reais I think it's really expensive for anyone in the world, never mind in Brazil, where this is over 1 years' salary for a large proportion of the population.  There must be some real big amiga fans there.

 I know the guy who's selling the A4000T. Believe me, the machine value the price (R$5200,00, Brazilian "Reais" ~ US$2972.00).

 Unfortunately, he don't sell it outside Brazil.

 If I have the money and my wife don't even dream about it... sigh!

Regretably, you are correct, the treasonous political pygmies in parliament are prepared to give away British Sovereignty just for a pat on the head.
It would be a mistake to make us drive on the wrong side of the road, it is the reason why we don't get as many hurricanes as other similar countries.  :-)

I don't think that Swedish weather has changed much since they switched to driving on the correct side of the road (although they did already have left-hand drive cars, they just had their roads set up the wrong way). Btw, there's not much hurricanes going on over here either.

But I *do* believe that when you change to left-hand-drive, there will be a lot of confused and lost people on that magic roundabout of yours in Swindon  :-D

yes, but you're government were completely nuts, and enforced the change overnight ! it was in the 60s IIRC. its probably wayy too late to do that here, now - traffic volumes and all !

They'll have to prise Pound Sterling and Right Hand Drive out of my cold dead rictus fetid fingers. besides, give it a few more decades, we'll all be back to walking or horse drawn vehicles anyway.
