You can also give the free shipping to whole EU, there is not much difference between member countries in the postage-price if at all.

"as after 20 years in the Amiga, I now have to finally move on and concentrate on my family life. "

Translation : My wife is making me sell my youth away.

Welcome hamtronix!

About that famous phrase. You see that in almost every Amiga sale ad. I don't get that. Can't you have a family and an Amiga? Also people say that it's time for a new computer; do you need to get rid of the old one? I never threw away any of my computers.

You're on drugs c64_d0c, there is no way in hell he will get the asking price let alone twice as much selling it piece by piece!

It's a decade old computer for pete's sake!

Drugs would be cheaper...

I sold an A4000 desktop with more hardware than that for half the price you are asking in 2002.  I doubt you will get that much at this late date.  Even with the high prices and limited availability, you could build that system for less...if you can find all the hardware.

"...if you can find all the hardware..."
----------------------------------------

And that, gents, is the biggest IF around, and the reason why things are expensive.
A4000Ts are rare...
PIVs are rare (well, the owners don't really want to sell them)...
Cyberstorms are always in demand. His has a Cybervision on it.
Look on ebay for the individual components and then tell me how much it would cost in total to build that  ;-)

Edit: A4000D cannot be equated to A4000T

[A3KOne]

Finding the hardware boils down to willingness to dig.

I had rather have a towerized and mediated A4000D, personally.


A picasso IV and cvppc is nice...but the performance can be beaten with mediator.

What the seller has to comprehend, is that okay its $3500 now after reduction, but What can I get for $3500 alternately.

I built an Intel E6400 for $1500, and throw in Winuae.. and I got a system that will vaporise any Amiga 4000, and yes thats emulated.  My Desktop 4000 sits idle now.

I payed less than $1000 for it and its got the Picasso, Cyberstorm (MKII), 20GIG HDD.

$3500 ?  LOL sorry i dont think so.

A friend of min in college had a slightly modified Buick Grand National that would do an 11.45 second quarter mile, much faster than the occasional Ferrari that would show up at the track.  The Buick "vaporizes" the Ferrari.  But I still want the Ferrari, tyvm.

An Amiga is not an amiga if it is emulated because it doesn't psyically exist, not much technological barrier breaking going on.
An Amiga is the hardware that was made in the late 80's early 90's, that was so technologically advanced, barriers for these  machines are still being broken, various upgrades including Mediators and other expansions.

>147GIG Seagate U320 SCSI Hard Drive (34MB/SEC ON THE A4000T)

How do you get 34mb a second from a controller that can do 25mb/second max ?
