alexh dont really mind as long as it got the stuff i need on it evo x etc+ bigger hard drive not the 8 gigs microsoft supplys + roms+roms roms  and emulators all set up ready to play plus i want my dreambox to stream to it over a network not interested in playing xbox games  so dont need the xboxlive  that the soft moded ones cant provide yes i know i could do it on a pc but a pc does not look right in the living room unless you spend serious amounts of money  plus i may want to put a xbox in to my jamma cab latter on

give us a day or so and ill try to box it and get a weight for it all and give every one a idea on price to post it its more likely to be in the pallet size dont worry ill get back to all interested as ive dragged it all down from the loft and it aint going back ill pop in to this fourm over the next couple of hours/days to check to see whats going on


also ill gladly meet any one round m25 services clackets/ lakeside/south mims side as i can do all these in a hour as long as you pay my petrol+toll on top which would not be more than £15

Well thanks for everyone’s help im in two minds ive seem to have underestimated the attention this lot would draw its not the room as I have a few out buildings they could be stored in but what’s the point on hoarding it away its not been used for a few good years and the only thing im likely to boot it up  for is a bit of  frontier and a few other games on a rainy day  The software will eventually degrade away  and it seems such a shame as I never realized the Amiga community was going strong and could make use of this stuff what I know in some cases this stuff would end up on one of my most Hated things for this kind of stuff is eBay being resold for a lot more than its being offered here  don’t know if I should let people cherry pick or sell as a lot  or make a quick buck on eBay Fat boy your very near but would prefer to do swaps with other retro gear or other interesting stuff people have as we all get things we want

My hobbies are-:

Vintage cars/hotrods
Drag racing
Arcade machines(JAMMA BOARDS)
Retro console/computers
Sat TV (DREAMBOX INFO)(MOSC/GLICHERS/INFO)
Also after that moded xbox

Come on people some one must have things I want cash seems so cold and hard this Amiga stuff was collect with love and pride and needs to go to a real loving tech head home
