Is there any Commodore you'd want?
« on: October 12, 2006, 10:19:32 PM »
Price be damned.. which is your dream Amiga or Commodore?

Myself.. I have alot of Amiga's..but the one I want is a Amiga 1000.  Absoloutely MINT.  NIB.  For example..in a box like redrumola was selling on ebay.  I wouldnt use it though, just let it sit in a box with the rest of my close to mint/clean Amiga's.

Funny thing.. I sell off my Amiga stuff without much of a care but the 8bit machines I keep around.

I would *LOVE* to have a MINT VIC-20 system w/a VIC-1541.  Again I have about 4 8bitters but not mint, just good condition.

I have a buttload of C= stuff in my personal collection, but it's all heavily used so fair to good condition. I would LOVE to have a NIB Commodore 128D. Heck, I'd love to collect just about any 8bit C= NIB.
Someone has to state the obvious and that someone is me!

I still would love to get my hands on a real A4000T but they are just way to pricy for me. (I just had to plop down $20,000 for a newer minivan because the one I had the motor went on it and GM wont fix it even though its a known issue) :-o

A3000T for me. I had an A1200 in a surplus A3kt housing once, that was a pretty big insult to the A3kt case to be honest =).

I already have a pretty darned good VIC-20 collection: with 1540 disk drive, 1525 printer, all the original Commodore cartridges, etc. etc.

But I'd love to own a PET 2001 with chicklet style keyboard and built-in datasette!  First computer I ever used back in 1979.

A mint SX64 would be great, but even a C65 would do.  :lol:

Personally I'd like to have two of every Commodore ever made, one in NIB condition to keep on display and one in good condition to play around with.

Oh and a bigger apartment and/or house to put them all in  :-)

They aren't exactly mint but I have two Colts.Also Pet 2001, and a couple other numbers but not the original chicklet keyboard model.

Also have a Commodore 386 laptop.Must try running 64 emulator to freak out some people.

For C= stuff, its a tie for the ultimate, cost-no-object, dream machine.  Either an original NIB A3000T or an ESCOM A4060T (though I'm not sure if this qualifies as "C="?  But, if it is permissable to broaden the category a little bit, I think its also worth mentioning another ultra-rare digital "objet-d'art" that would surely fetch in the several thousands of dollars if one were ever put up at auction.  That would be the super-sleek Atari STbook, the modern laptop that was made many years before laptops (or even desktops for that matter) became "modern".    
Primary:
A4000T. Phase5 PPC604e-233mhz/060-66mhz. Mediator, Z3 Fastlane, Voodoo5, Delfina, X-Surf, AD516, Peggy Plus.

Collection:
A4000D, A1200, A500, Milan060 (Atari clone), Atari MegaSTE, Atari TT030, C64, C128, Mattel Aquarius, (2) HP Jornada....

I really would like an a3000 or a a4000. The only amigas i have owned was a500, a2000 and the a1200. Currently have 3 a500 and a towered a1200.

I also would like a c128d which i sadly had but i was young and dumb so i sold it.

For me the Commodore A4000T for sure!!  In presentible shape of course, does not need to be MIB.  I already have a nice A3000T and a NIB C=128D!  ;)
