Wish I had a hold of that board. I like to get it powered up and see what screen it would display when repaired. Shipping would break my bank I bet.

Well I just sent a request for shipping to the US, we'll see what that might cost.

The ebay ad is in some gibberish language.  I can't get an translation.


That would be spanish and german :lol:
It is confusing, the ebay page is in spanish and the description in in german. Grab the item number and plug it in the search of the ebay site that's native to your country. The ebay information will be translated then. And here is my rough translation of the german description....

The C900 was Commodore's answer to a question that no one asked. In it's time, it was an advanced workstation with a high performance CPU and a UNIX style operating system. Unfortunatly the project was canceled after a handful of proto types were built in favor of the Amiga. Here's a unique chance to own the complete motherboard and daughterboard of a long passed series. A valuable piece of Commodore history.
