Finally got an Amiga 3000

[leirbag28]

 I must be the only Amigan who totally dislikes the A3000. THE VGA port is nice, but only because it has Simultaneous RGB output for genlocks and such. But I dislike the way the kickstart works and its darn heavy.

I got one for sale if anyone wants it ($120). its got 2mb chip and about 12mb FAST, 68030, 1 floppy and a small SCSI HD and a battery thats about to leak or has leaked but no damage yet.
 I am in NYC  I would consider trades or partial trades with cash if you got something I want.

THings I am looking for:

DCTV Y/C S-video version
SUPER Promt (Teleprompt software from Innovision)
ImageVision (SCALA type program)
VideoFX (From ClassX/Haage and Partner?)
Delfina Sound card
Quaddddra port
Graffiti gfx card
A600 accelerator (any)
A600 Motherboard Rev 2B

most on this list would probably be Partial trade and cash. But ask me.

 My old A3000 had three hard drives crammed into her. Two double stacked behind the floppy and one in the second floppy bay. She ran for years that way till one day as I was going to show her off to a friend... green screen.--zip--

 This just indicates bad RAM (two possible causes):

 A zip chip popped out of its socket;

 Bad CIA-A.

All removable ram taken out. One meg of known good dip? chips put in for fast ram. No dice, green screen. It's thought that maybe one of the soldered in memory chips is faulty.

Didn't try the CIA-A chip. Didn't think that had anything to do with a video error. The Agnus was replace with a known good one and the socket was replaced that didn't help. I had damaged the socket in the past. Hans did the work. His work looks nice but I still get the green screen.
