A1000 Phoenix System w/ expansions

Very impressive indeed.

I'm a huge A1000 fan (it remains my single favourite computer of all time) and I've often thought about joining a1k.org but I wasn't sure how welcome I'd be given that I'm not fluent in German. I also have something that I think may be of great interest to a1kers. It's my notes from the first Amiga Developers Conference held in Monterey, California in 1985. Its especially interesting as many of the notes are handwritten as the proper notes hadn't yet arrived from the printers. Here are some photos:





Sorry about the quality. I'm a lousy photographer. You can't really make it out but the little thing at the bottom is a spare bouncing ball logo as was found on the first run of Amiga 1000s.

I wonder what that lot of rare Amiga history is worth...

Please excuse my following up my own posting but I've registered (near as I can tell) at a1k.org. My inability to comprehend German makes it difficult to know for sure. I received what I assume was a welcome message and I responded. I hope this works out.

Will do.

Please be aware, that there are no new GB-1000 to be bought presently, if thats what you are after.

The GB-1000 is a *complete* DIY-project.

Yeah, I know. I didn't get in on the order for boards because I don't have the skills to make such an item (I'm software, not hardware). Who knows though, I might find someone interested in making a buck or a thousand.
