FS:Amiga 4000 w/ SCALA INFOCHANNEL IC500 Turn Key system

[PaSha]

Super rare? :-D
These things were used by cable tv companies, airports, railway stations, malls, and all sorts of places, and can often be found sitting around in a cupboard somewhere in such places.

Anyways, if it really brings in such an insane amount of money, I guess I'll sell off 2 of my 3 complete sets of SCALA IC500....

EDIT: On the pics, it seems to be a (ex?) Toaster? I assume the board in the Video slot is a Peggy Plus mpeg-decoder board (commonly found in SCALA systems), but I can't figure out the extra connector on the back (where you normally put the external SCSI-port of your Cyberstorm).

Exactly how many version's of Scala's Amiga products are there? I've always been interested but could never keep any of it straight. What's the diff between InfoChannel IC500 and IC200 and Scala MM, etc.?

Also if you want to see something stunning, feel free to send email to the guy on eBay selling Scala for $2,947.00 US. Click here and be amazed at the gall.

This is the PC version. And SCALA InfoChannel always did cost tons of money. (but perhaps not this much...)

Personally, I have the following Amiga versions:

Scala v1.13 (original, boxed)
Scala MM200 (red dongle)
Scala IC400 (original, boxed, yellow dongle)
Scala IC500 (minor update to IC400)(original, boxed, yellow dongle)

There is also MM300 and MM400.

IC500 was the latest Amiga version.

A quote from one of the Scala devs, when they started developing their PC version back in the days of MS-DOS:

"On the Amiga, our challenge was to utilize the features of the OS in all possible ways.
On the PC, our challenge is to avoid the OS in all possible ways"
