Re: Petro: 500 units new Amiga 1200 Magic Pac

Hi guys,

I've been reading this forum for a couple of years, but registered just a few days ago. I owned Amiga 500 and Amiga 1200 when I was young, but I sold them. Now, when I am almost 40, I decided to buy one again from Petro, as I missed a chance to buy NOS from Amigakit longer time ago.

Mine arrived on Thursday. For 17 years old machine it is in really great condition. I opened it and checked the capacitors, all looks like they would be made just yesterday, perfectly clean, no leakage whotsoever, the same PSU.

 I had also some strange browning on the PSU and mouse cables, I just thought it was yellowed from sun, but then I tried with my fingers if it gets away, and it seems it was just some sort of dirt. I just cleaned them with towel and water.

I didn't have a time to check if everything works, I need to buy and install some HDD in it, but it boots without problems with provided PSU.

As for Petro's signature on the Amiga, it got away simply with pencil eraser.

Here are some pictures:

I wonder why your kit has a different type of mouse. Mine is of the newer(?) type (see pic).

Yes, it seems yours is a newer one. I don't really know, maybe there were some different versions of Amiga 1200 Magic packs, or Petro exchanged it :)
