Haynie's Garage Sale

If there are people willing to pay $3000 for an Amiga system that there's supposed to be thousands of, chances are there's someone willing to pay twice that for a real piece of Amiga history, working or not.  Really, how well could the X1000 work anyway?

Umm.. first x1000 isnt even for sale yet!


Right, and people are lining up to pay $3000 for one.  I personally feel a non-working AAA prototype board is worth more than an X1000.

I bid on it, though I stopped far short of the current bid.

However, if I was offered either the prototype or an X1000, I'd go for the prototype.  X1000s, should they ever come out, will be far easier to come by.
