Or we'll start suspecting one another of being Doommy. :inquisitive:

Hmm... Ever notice how Shaf rarely posts recently but suddenly Doomy gets banned and Shaf re-appears...  
Come to think of it, I've never seen them in the same room together....

and Tj - it's awfuly convenient that you just happened to drive down and see Doomy, and that you live so close...

:inquisitive:

-edit-



The above post is meant as a joke only!  It's hard to convey humor in text sometimes. :(

I'm just kidding with ya!  

I just think it's funny now that Doomy is gone, we're all on Doomy-lookout!

Some people mail computers with the original box ONLY and send it off! I didn't want that

Yeah - one of the long list of things that make collectors like you and me cringe.

Also, the senseless writing on the box.  Like the mint 1080 box I have that says "MONITOR" in huge black marker.  (I'd have thought the full size picture of the monitor would have been the giveaway there...)

Or the A1000 packaging I have that says "ATTIC" on all sides.

Sigh...

For Amiga?  Hmm...
The A1000 stuff, despite the "Attic" marking is my best.  Has all the polys, little read-me first type intserts, quick setup guides, etc.  The monitor even says "Seller - you must register this monitor with the EPA.  Do not sell to a consumer with this tag attached!"

For Atari, I have a pretty good XEGS.  

I *had* the original box for a NorthStar Horizon, but it was water damaged when I left it outside in the rain...

Who'd have thought it would rain here?  In Seattle?

You know,  I just might have a box for my 1200...
I know it sounds odd, but you jogged my memory.  I'll look the next time I'm on Bainbridge Island (where my really, really packed stuff is located)
