Help me figure out how much this will cost
« on: July 24, 2010, 10:11:52 PM »
So with the plan of building out my 2000....
 
 
060 card with a decent amount of RAM
RTG card
Network card
A hard drive solution (SCSI or IDE)
CDROM drive
 
As a reasonable estimate these days, how much money do you think I should be setting aside

yikes thats a lot of money :)

Good point on Zorro 2 vs 3

Does either the 3000 or 4000 come with SCSI controller already there ? What about IDE controller ?

Yes,your going to spend alot of $$ on any amiga you deck out. One good thing is if you keep your stuff in good shape,its likely to be worth as much as you paid for it or more it in 10 years.Not much in the computer world (or life) holds its value that way.

this is true. The average value of a 286 PC these days is the petrol your car consumes picking it up :)

I'll definately consider looking a 3000 or 4000. This is all in the future anyways, probably end of year. Still got a couple trinkets I want for the 1200.
