There will be things added over the next few days.

Amiga SDK (for Red hat Linux) - lots of trivia items from the Amiga former offices.

I have 5 Gateway Amiga systems - 128 MB, Gateway EV700 monitor, keyboard, mouse - NO HARD DRIVE -
(most had 10 Gig HD's) will be putting that up soon. Each piece has the Amiga "security sticker".

Gateway and other keyboards w/security stickers,

I have a LOT of software manuals for Windows software - also some CD's with software and/or install stuff.

Naturally Speaking Dragon Software - new in box with Comp USA sticker on it, (179.99).

Revolving plastic office trays used in the Amaiga offices (sorry no sticker) but maybe I should include a copy of the auction recceipt and a COA (Certificate of Authenticity.

I have 4 pallets and 51 boxes of Amiga stuff.

Will be posting some pics of some nice items I've received (and will keep).

The Dell Lassisitude Laptop (Pentium II 400 Mhz),
the Gateway 15" flat screen monitor, the Toshiba laptop running Windows XP professional.

One bizarre item is the "scarecrow" - stuffed with newspaper and a head on a stick that was inserted into the scarecrow. I have no idea who was supposed to be replicated by this item.

I obtained a room full of material from the landlord (Tom - of the Inception Group) of items that weren't up for sale at the James Murphy aucton.

The BOINGED ball posters and the box of 70 or so SDK software.

Also, FREE BOINGED BALL posters to those who send me or PayPal me (rww@realpix.com) $5.55 shipping costs. Items are sent via US Priority Mail w/delivery confirmation in the special USPS poster mailing box.

See item posted on ANN.lu or PayPal, check, MO (payable to Rich Woods).

Poster viewable at http://www.merlanica.us/amigaauction/amigaboinged.jpg

These are absolute MINT (still in the wrapped up shipping method direct from the printer!).

And for those who say I am making money on this - US Priority Mail $3.85 plus .45 for delivery confirmation, around .55 cents for paypal fees, gas, packing materials - left with pretty much nothing.

Got no idea whom is represented. Remember they got their office locked around Aug 16, 2002. So this wouldn't be a Halloween type of thing.

Even have 2 Christmas wreaths from the office.

And their bulletin board header, and their State of CA official Business License, and their bowling sheet attached to their company bulletin board.

And their In/Out board with names of Amiga officials.

I'll be posting that tommorrow.

That's standard practice in businesses to mark their computer and other equipment.

The stickers cost pennies. Their rent was first around $20K and month and their second rental contract was at $15K a month.

BTW - pics of the nice Dell Pentium II 400 MHZ system (with docking port etc) is available at

http://www.merlanica.us/amigaauction/aadell1.jpg

It still has the auction company's sticker on it -this was the 1st item auctioned off- paid $250 for it.

This shows the Dell opening screen.

Thanks Amiga guys - decent system for a cheap price.

Peck's lawsuit was end of 2002 - in 2002 there were quite a few lawsuits against Amiga - the getting locked out of the offices, the Airborne Express lawsuit, Pecks and Fontenot's lawsuits - it pretty much hit Amiga all at once (in about 4 months or so).

Peck's lawsuit will be made available shortly. (Scanned court docs).

And certainly his remarks have the ring of truth.

The state license will be up also shortly. (Can only use my Mavica as using my sony camcorder with the 560x zoom is difficult since windows took a dive on me.

For sale - I don't know. If I could get a REAL nice price for it - have a ton of credit card debt as the entire trip and auction purchases went on my CC.

I don't like debt - I've learned my leson from years ago.

Wasn't the SDK released in two (or more) different versions, one initial and one updated version later on (that required a signed NDA?). Is it possible to tell which version this is?

(EDIT - BTW, the http://www.merlanica.us/amigaauction/amigaboinged.jpg and http://www.merlanica.us/amigaauction/aadell1.jpg doesn't seem to work)
--------------------
The SDK was released in a Red Hat Linux version and a Windows version. I have approx 70 of the Red Hat Linux version.

As far as the NDA goes - I don't think there is much chance of Amiga forcing people at this point to sign NDA's - plus I have legal title to the ones I have and I'm selling them at a good price. ($55). Brand new.

As for the links there are typos in the word merlancia -

http://www.merlancia.us/amigaauction/amigaboinged.jpg and
http://www.merlancia.us/amigaauction/aadell1.jpg

might as well just go to amigaauction/ and grab all the files there.
