is that hard drive just sitting on the mobo as pictured?  if so, you're not worried about shorting out the A2k?

You're selling your stuff off?  Man, I was hoping to have a decent Chicago Amiga GTG at some point...


No, no, no... will "never" fully get out of the Amiga. Just have been tossing around the idea of selling my 060 card - which has generated zero interest here. Will probably end up keeping it. Was thinking the A2000 might make a nice stand for my newly acquired A3000...  lol   I'll have to snap a pic of that if I do it. Space is becoming severely limited over here and I'd rather not put such an awesome system (my A2500) in storage. Out of sight, out of mind on something like that is not cool.

Hi!

No man - look better you will see that there is some paper under the hdd's
It look so messy but it is done/improvised  very well and also between the
cards and the hdd's is also some thin paper just to not touch them aswell
but i removed it just for taking the pictures!!!

Also under the floppy i have a 80mm fan just before the 060 cpu that put some fresh air into the case (if heavy use i remove the second floppy drive plastic with easy ;p) and there is in the back 2 80mm fans (one upright) pulling all the heat out of the case!

@save2600 Yeah u r right about the price but i m in need of cash to finish some other projects, i also have soo much computer stuff that a whole room is full of that and o/c i still have 2 more amigas for my pleasure...

My point is: Why having an Amiga in a PC case?
A notebook running MicroXP + WinUAE should smash a '060 isn't it?
And it's way prettier than this...

This kind of project isn't for everyone, but I myself have been tempted to re-case an A2000 into something a little prettier than the original A2000 case.  It definitely is something of a labor of love for all the effort it takes (which is why I haven't done it!)

I have done this very long time ago to be precise at the beginning of the 90s in time of the 386/486 pcs, keep that in mind,
IMO the original case of the A2000 was ugly! I like the case of the A4000 or the CDTV but A4000T is also just a PC alike case! I can always put a AMIGA stick on my amiga so it will look very nice to me! I m BTW a proud owner of a AMIGA computer and was a short time into the amiga scene not to mention the C64 so my A2000 RULEZ in whatever case it is :hammer: or was!
Also my keyboard is WHITE like my monitor so it is not yellow, beige or brown,
and NO the MicroXP or macro or mini or whatever XP + wuae is not faster :lol:

Shipping's a killer to about half the world on something like that.  If you're looking for some cash, you might just have to rip the heart out and sell it.

I think when you build a project like this one, it becomes more of a "personal" treasure and loses it's broader appeal.

I hope you find a buyer, if not, you could always sell the parts...

Yeah it's the same with tuned cars, you invest a lot of time work and money but if you want to sell it no one appreciate it...

Maybe i will part it out...  i will regret it i m already!

An alternative to parting out is to install everything that you have into an A2000 case (neatly). It should all fit. You'll have a hard time selling it looking like this for anywhere near your asking price regardless of how fast it is. Once you do this though you may decide to keep it!

:laughing:
yeah i have my original a2000 case and also one original a2000 floppy drive
(that just reminded me that the drive in the current case is a HD floppy ;p)
but no way to put it all back there...   yeah i will make also a picture of my
original a2000 keyboard so people can see why i put all the work/money into
this/my setup, i can ship the original parts together if someone is REALLY
interested in these ugly yellowish parts...
;p
