@lempkee

I actually collect all Commodore computers including the complete 8-bit range & the Commodore PC range and have over 40 machines in this collection:-

2 x KIM-1, 20 x PET's, 2 x VIC20, 2 x C64, C128, C128D, C116, 3 x Plus/4, 2 x C16, C232, 2 x SX-64, Commodore Max, 64GS, PC-I, PC10-III, PC40-III, 2 x Commodore PC Laptop, Commodore 900(unix)

Again I am always looking to fill gaps in my collection, particularly the Commodore PC range.

Also forgot to include 2 x A1-SE's to my Amiga collection. Also I mainly use the A1-XE, A4000T & Pegasos II, although I have always got several projects on the go at any one time.  Current WIP includes:-

i) setting up Debian Linux Sarge on A1-XE
ii) building an A1200 tower with a mediator card and Blizzard PPC accelerator
iii) Amithlon x86 Laptop

great idea! But when I showed her this thread she just said the we *ALL* belong in the film One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest

Tell her she is just jealous because the little voices are not talking to her!   :crazy:

@Technoid

Correction:-

1 x A1200 - broken pin on pmcia i/f
1 x A2000 - broken pin on joystick interface - have spare but not yet installed.
1 x A500 - 1 enter key membrane faulty

All else working 100% ;-)

IMHO you should have listed on eBay. If it was an A4000 with PPC and in reasonable condition you would have got at least £500+ for it.  Breaking it down into components you probably would have got £700-800+ depending on the other contents of the A4000. Trick is not to charge a large upfront price, just let the Amiga collectors bid or it.  You would have been very surprised what people (including myself) are willing to pay for quality Amiga components. I have found the vast majority of Amiga eBay seller very good to deal with.

However as you say it's your choice to do with as you wish.  Just a shame you dumped a piece of retro computer history.
