500,4000,4000T 15 years of software
« on: November 05, 2015, 04:45:04 PM »
My father passed and I have the following:
Amiga 500, 4000,
4000T with Catweasel and Emplant
Cybervision
Cyberstorm 060-50
Cyberstorm I think is a 060-50 but it has a heatsink on the chip
Mediator with Spider USB, ethernet, 3DFx video, sound card, 8up.
Picasso IV w Concierto Sound Module
Picasso IV
DPS TBC IV, DPS TBC I
Two Insert MkII
SCSI case with 4 drives
Fastlane Z3
GVP IOExtender
Sunrize AD516
Hydra Ethernet
EFlash 4000
Hypercom 3
SoftHut Toastscan
MBX 1200Z - Original Box
Amiga
8UP Full of memory chips
DKB XL Floppy Drive - Original Box
Phase V Fastland - Original Box
Commodore 1084S
Insite Peripherals Floppy Drive
Mouse Master Joy/Mouse two position switcher
Aegis Sound Magic Digital Audio Sampler
Mac to Dos - Floppy converter?
Video Interface Pro - Super VHS Output DigiPex Corp
Three button, Jin, Alpha Data, etc. mice

Have original manuals for much of the hardware above.

OS 3.1, 3.9, OS XL, with manuals boxes

Hundred or so of Amiga Format etc. magazines with associated floppies. Hundred or so productivity programs, games, etc.

Have many of the original boxes and documentation for the games, productivity and utilities. Art Department Pro, Bars & Pipes Pro, etc.

I am leaving these as he left them since I am only now learning about the Amiga.  Except for the 4000 where I am replacing the battery (Learned about that here).  It had a slight amount of corrosion on the battery but not on the board.  So I ordered a replacment from Amiga Kit.  The 4000T is original Amiga and never had a battery on the board.  It was plugged in.  So I replaced the battery in the battery holder. Nothing has been tested.  He passed 5 years ago and I am just now getting to this.

I live in Tucson, AZ.  I am not looking to make a killing on this.  My Dad loved the Amiga and would want it to go to someone that is going to use it not just put it on EBay at a higher price. Took pictures of most of the hardware have not started on the software.  I.E. putting in back in the original boxes.
 I am willing to drive two hours to meet someone at a reasonable price.  I am willing to split into two groups.

Thanks to you all.  Like I said I would like it to go to someone that would use it.  I know there is some money here but really want it to go to someone that respects the Amiga as he did.

Will try to post a shot of all the software and original boxes.

Revised. I posted the shots to make sure of what I had.  The Big Book of Amiga says that the card with the heatsinks is actually a Cyberstorm PPC 060/50.  But it should have a fan on the upper heatsink and connected to the power on the upper left. The non-heat sink is a Cyberstorm MkIII 060-50.  Learning as I go.
Also, by the sound of it I guess I will have to auction and ship world wide.  There is just a ton of stuff.

Did not know it was a PPC chip under the heatsink.  New picture required.

He hadn't been active with the Amiga for some time.  I believe that the Cyber boards and the rest were out because he was getting ready to down size.

I wouldn't mind working with the Amiga.  Figure it was the best ever made.  But I am trying to downsize now too.  Kind of worried about even turning anything on since he had pulled so much and I don't have enough knowledge about the Amiga.

In the end I figure I will just have to go piece by piece.  I will put the enormous amount of software with the 4000 and the 4000T.  Also, some really expensive Ultra SCSI cables, terminators,  you know all that other stuff that comes with staying with a single computer for at least 15 years.

BTW where do you guys mostly sell your stuff?

You all have been great.  Thanks for all the info.
Have decided I must break all this up.  Too much for one person unless you are a complete nut.  Amibay it is and thank you all again.

I have been ill for about 6 months and am recovering.  So it will be at  least a month before I am able to start checking everything and be able  to box stuff for shipping. I have made no absolute decisions except that I want it to go to a real Amiga person.

I know everything was running when it was put  away but that was some time ago.
 
I will update here when I am ready to do all of that.

Finally replied to everyone.  Am cleaning out all kinds of things not just the Amiga.  I finally have all the Amiga stuff layed out together and pulled the 4000T out and ran it. Now has OS3.9 on a HD. Will get back to the Amiga stuff later after more of all the other things I meant to cleanup are dealt with.

I only check msgs and emails every few days so please forgive my late replies.

The entire collection is SOLD.

Was working on it. The 4000T checked, then I checked the Cyberstorm 060/50 and the CyberstormPPC 604. They all worked.  Got online with the X-Surf.  Did not need to go further.  Really enjoyed how nice the Amiga OS is.  Thanks to all those who helped me on figuring out what I had and how much it was worth.  BTW even setup a website and posted pictures of it all there -  http://www.craigstuff.comli.com/  A lot of unnecessary work!
