It'd be nice to have a brand new A1200. I think that will probably be my next machine, if I can get a good price!

01. An Amiga 1060... If I keep asking I guess one day I'll get one.

02. A tape drive for the 3000UX  The only item I am missing.

03. Amiga 2500... With the label.

04. Boxes for the Amiga 4000D, 3000D, 3000T, 4000T.

05: Amiga 1200 CD drive the one that was never released.


I would have said an original A4000T but only if someone is prepared to give it free of charge.

Amazing that one the most difficult things to get hold of was the polystyrene cheese that held the modulator in the A500/500Plus box. Sometimes the packaging is the most difficult to find cus its the first to get destroyed. The best box still has to be the 1200 Desktop Dynamite box... If only for my memorable Christmas when I bought the machine. Still got it.

Sonnet quaddoubler 50.
So that I could clock an A3640 at 50 MHz.

Fun thread! I have several things on my list:
 
A500 with Viper 530
A4000 with Picasso IV and all expansions (Paloma, Concierto etc)
Commodore 64 Game System
CD-32 with SX-32 and FMV module

All these systems are high on my 'wanted' list but I will probably never own them since my current Amiga and C64 allready cover all the needs I have and pricing of these items is just way too much (although I admit I already own a very expensive setup)
Amiga 1200 (1d4) Kickstart 3.1 (40.68), Elbox Power/Winner tower (450w psu), BlizzardPPC 603e+ @240mhz & 060 @50mhz, 256MB, Bvision, IDE-fix Express, IndivisionAGA, 120GB IDE, cd, dvd, Cocolino, Micronik Keycase, PCMCIA Ethernet, Ratte monitor switcher, Prelude1200, triple boot WB3.1 / OS3.9 / OS4.1, Win95 / MacOS8.1

Now that I'm thinking about it - I would absolutely love to finally get my hands on a Video Toaster!

I heard so much about them way back in the day, when they were considered to be just this side of pure mAgic. I want one!

I think the next time I see one on ebay I may actually bid on it!

Some things I missed on Amiga were:
 * Basic multidrop networking capability for get-to-gether-and-code (or copy..)
 * Ethernet (later)
 * Memory protection
 * Decent speed, decode of a 100k jpeg in 30 minutes is not my idea of speed..

Other than that it had great multitasking, music, graphics, discs and connectivity. What would the base standard for computing be without Commodore's own chip-fab! ;)

I think the big issue with jpeg decoding is the lack of an FPU on most Amiga's - im pretty confident that if you grabbed a 386sx25 with a high colour (65k colour) gfx card & 8mb ram it would be just as slow as a 25mhz 030.

A HD floppy drive, Updater for the Indivision AGA Mk II, and basically one, or two, of everything offered by Amigakit. :D

Yes that could be nice :) what do you think that setup will cost?

If I remember rightly, My A4000 cost in upgrades (in AU$, approximate):

$900 for the CSPPC (and it was an 040 when I bought it) + another $75 for the 060 (latest mask)
$400 for the Mediator 4000Di
$200 for the Deneb
$200 for the Indivision MK1
$100 for the ZorRAM
$100 for the SCSI to SATA adapter
$40 for the Voodoo 3 3000
$50 to re-cap the Motherboard and PSU
$120 for the Delfina Flipper

Other stuff I put in there were either laying around or got for free.

When I was a teenager I always wished to get an CSPPC (and getting a A4000 when I was younger). Having it all now I understand how limited the software library for the PPC is. Shame, as it was a very promising upgrade at the time...
