Do any of you own an Amiga 3000 Tower? i been looking at pictures of it, and i must say it looks very stylish what do An Amiga 3000 Tower cost these days?

Hi Lassie,

I owned one years ago, used it as my server.

It is an awesome system, very expandable.

The case is almost laughable.  About as heavy as a sherman tank!  The heaviest Amiga every created by a long shot.

Like the 3000D it is built with all the best stuff of any Amiga.  The workmanship and pieces are top shelf, it feels like quality (Just don't move it by yourself).

IMHO is had 2 improvements of a desktop.
1.  It dealt with heat better than a 3000D.
2.  Lots of expansion slots.

Other than that, a 3000 D is a better choice for me.  It fits on my desk and is a nice tidy package.

Market prices today for a tower, fully working a spec'd out will cost you about a grand or so.

Have fun...

Yes i could imaging it is a heavy machine and expensive to what are those Led numbers at the top of the tower? is it to see MHz or something.

The 3000T is more rare than the 4000T which stripped go in the USD range of $800 to $1,200; a 3000T would be well above that. I've bought 2 A4000T's when new and outfitted both with All the good stuff -- CSPPC, Mediators, DVD-RW, UW320 HDD's, Indivision AGA MK2, etc.  Trust me, a maxed out A4000T has at least another $2,500 invested in it.

Don't go down that alley unless you are single or will be when your partner finds out.

Oh sorry Dude, don't know what the 3000Ts LEDs are, they are too rare for me to covet! Your neighbor's wife would be cheaper.

Yes you are proboley right, my fiance will leave me if i buy more old computers especially if she finds out the price, then i am single again.

I have an 3000T in perfect condition withe the feet still intact and no battery dmg what so ever.

The sad part is i blew the motherboard after a cap change so its on its way to new zealand for repair.

But it sure is a lovley machine to use and expand :hat:

Hi cool that you have one hope you get it fixed soon
