Amiga 4000/060 Desktop FOR SALE

[mpiva]

  Hello everyone.  I've just listed my Amiga 4000 desktop with Cyberstorm MK III 060@50Mhz and Cybervision64 on eBay here:

ITEM BACK ON SALE AND THIS TIME THE HIGH DENSITY FLOPPY DRIVE IS FIXED!

Commodore Amiga 4000/060 Desktop (FULLY LOADED!!!)

  I hate to get rid of it but I'm not using it (don't worry, I still use my even more upgraded A4000T every day).  I figure I might as well send it to someone who can make more use of her than I (and hopefully put some of the money towards buying a new Amiga ;-) )

   Hello everyone,

You now have a second chance to get this great system.  Last time it didn't sell (didn't quite get to my reserve).

HOWEVER, NOW IT IS BETTER!  The reserve is lower and I managed to get the high density floppy drive WORKING!

Happy Bidding.

Well, to a degree I hear what you are saying, but if it was just about power, it would seem that it would not be a reasonable price to pay, given that for 800 bucks you could get a pretty tweaked PC that would outstrip in every way this Amiga.

   True, but for the Amiga enthusist a tweaked out PC still can't compare to a genuine Classic Amiga with all the goodies.  I also have an A4000T at home that is even more upgraded than the A4000D I have on eBay.  I could probably get a small fortune out of the thing (especially with it being a Tower) and buy a fancy new PC or even an AmigaOne which would blow my A4000T away in every aspect.  Still, I would never DREAM of selling my A4000T.  Believe me, I still want to buy an AmigaOne (or possibly Amy'05) one of these days but I intend on taking that A4000T to my grave. :-)

   Sure it's illogical.  Sure, as my wife constantly complains, I'm far too emotionally attached to that aging hunk of circuitry.  Perhaps it because I practically built the thing from scratch, slowly gathering bits and pieces over the years.  Or perhaps, as a collector, it represents having the epitome of the Classic Era, but I think it's more than just that.  Simply being an Amiga user nowadays is illogical.  That's because the Amiga is more about ideals and philosophy than practicality.

   Sure Amiga (both Classic and New) cost more than the alternative but people are willing to pay that because it not about GHz and GBytes, its about the experience.  As Hyperion recently put it, Amiga is FUN. :-D

   Just my 2 cents (or $800  :lol: )

LAST CHANCE EVERYONE!  The reserve's already been met; this time it will definately sell!  DONT LOSE OUT on this chance to get a nearly top-of-the-line Classic Amiga!
