Amiga 2000/060 interest here before I send it to ???
« on: August 18, 2005, 10:33:42 PM »
I have an Amiga2000 with GVP TekMagic 060 with 48MB, ASDG Dual Serial, GVP Spectrum 2MB, KS3.1, OS3.5, DKB MegaChip, 2GB, 1GB and 500MB SCSI HDs, two DD floppy drives, internal SCSI CDROM, external SCSI CDROM, keyboard, a couple mice, always been in a non-smoking environment. Software - ADPro, TurboCalc, AmigaDOS back to 2.04, plus others (I'll make up a complete list at some point, if requested).

I would like to see what the interest in such system would be before I decide what to do with it. It still boots up fine after 15 years of service. That last time I was inside it, about 3 years ago, the battery looked fine, no leakage, but it may need replacing. Again, I can dig a little deeper if the interest is there.

This is my second Amiga that I had after selling my A1000 way back in 1989(?). I would like to get fair value for this machine. I realise what it is so I am not looking for thousands of dollars. I'm not going to say that it is way better than any of those AGA machines (hehe, yah Doomy). Please send serious offers to PM or legopete at rogers dot com.

Thanks,
Peter

As far as A2000s go, that sounds like one of the best. Hope you find a home for it.

It has been my pride and joy for a number of years, so I am having some pre-separation angst. Reality is I just don't use it that often anymore and I need to raise some cash for a digital SLR. I do use AmigaForever every now and then, so I figure if I really miss that Amiga feeling, I'll build an Amiga Forever box.

Not to mention that these industrial specced beauties weigh so much shipping will be at least 80 US$ (no import taxes on used items though!)

And my account is maxxxed out too :(

I'm only interested in "Professional" grade machines with
"Miltary Spec" chips in them. :lol:

BTW, if this doesn't make sense, just ignore my statement
