Ordered a CS PPC

[Plaz]

I wonder if it's possible for me to buy any of the
broken MKIII's and PPC's I've seem people talk about.
Been a while, but I used to fix tons of such hardware.
Any place in the US servicing these cards?
Matter of fact any one have a bad one they might like
me to take a look at? You'd get it back, promise.
At least in no worse shape then you sent it.
Here check my ebay... feedback   :hammer:

@dotorq

prefer my self-customized Chieftech Dragon tower much better; not that difficult a task to do  

man that Elbox tower must be bad if it got beaten by a chiftec wich is the worst tower i ever owned..why its an fan amplifier and the vibration,outch

im just wondering havent you got noise problems whith that case i did and decided i did not like it at all,how manny open fan holes is it in there annyways?

ps: hope i did not offend you just stated my experince with chiftec.

adonay  :-D

I think someone needs to reverse engineer (for ideas only of course) these damned cards or somehow obtain the schematics and start making them again. Surely there's enough of us users left in the world to warrant the market.

Why not take a normal Amiga drive and just remove the faceplate and button, paint them, and re-install?  :-)

This is the solution I'm trying the next time, unless one of the two new drives I'm getting home doesn't work with the Amiga. Just wanted a new diskdrive, that's all, and Amiga diskdrives are SOO expensive :-(

@adonay

No, you didn't offend my at all. Different people prefer different things, some like their ELBOX tower, but I certainly did not.

Noise problems? I have none, no vibration or anything. Are you sure we are talking about the same tower? Anyways, I use Papst 12 dB and 19 dB fans, so noise isn't a problem here. I have two fans placed in the side plate and currently only one inside the tower (a 19 dB on my PPC CPU).

@Effy - I have no idea what you're on about - I meant use
plasic primer before painting box parts, I used it on the
AROS tower of power and all the painted plastic still looks
good (several scratches on the metal though :-(

Micronik Towers made of plastic?
Which model(s) are you talking about?
:-?
Hummmmm - mine (A4k Big Tower) is mainly made of metal.
The only plastic parts it has are the feet and the front panel (which is mounted on metal, of course)...

I'm completely satisfied with my A4000-Micronik-Big-Tower...

I'm talking about the MicroniK Infinitiv towers for A1200. I take it you haven't owned one of these, otherwise you would know what I was talking about. See it here.

I haven't got a problem with the MicroniK tower you are talking about (the A4k version). I have one of those myself; I'm talking about the MicroniK Infinitv tower and the Mirage 4000 Pro tower.

Seems like Mar Hardware Computers is out of business.
About two weeks have passed now since I made the order and no reply from them or from the 3 emails I've sent them on different occasions.
Luckily I found a CS PPC 233mhz/'060@50 at another Amiga dealer.
