Oddly enough I was about to post a very similar question. I count 7 Amigas here and I can't tell you the last time I booted one up, which is so very sad, but then I have a heck of a lot on my plate at this point in time. My wife is going to retire in a couple of years and I am retired now (and disabled with a blown back) so I putter around the yard and studio but sitting for long periods is pretty painful and trying to figure out what the heck is wrong with the A4000/040 or the A3000 requires swapping parts and testing batteries and trying to figure out where the heck the one screw fell.... you all know what I mean. But I have a very nice A4000/CSPPC060 which boots every time, a very unusual A4000T that boots every time and a relatively nice A2000/030. I am unable to solve the "getting online" problem with any of them... yeah I checked all the articles and back postings and tried it all and I think it just isn't going to happen. Besides which the only reason I wanted online was to make it easier to DL files and progs, which I now transfer with a Ami2PC cable. The A2000 was for my wife to play old games with but most of the floppies are DOA and she's moved on to Soduko and online games that won't run on Amigas anyway. So besides the unique tower (the Beast) I don't really (dare I say it?) have any use for all these wonderful machines and their parts buddies. So I'm thinking about selling them. My '98 Volvo just blew a radiator, My daughter will be graduating next year and thus paying back her many student loans. I'm thinking it might be time to purge the house of toys... except maybe the Beast... and move on to a more appropriate level of play, one befitting a 56 year old man with a busted back and fixed income.
