I want to see a warehouse filled with A3000+'s personally.


It would be pretty difficult to find a warehouse
full, since they only made 50...:P

 Of those 50, does anyone here own one besides D. Haynie?  Perhaps there is one in an old rich man's garage with its battery leaking *shudder* :-x

@Lo:

IIRC there was nothing special about them except the FF and SCSI onboard.
Of course it's  a rarity and has value because of that, but technicallywise it's the same as an A4000.
An AAA chipset board would be different, maybe a PCI version of one ;-)

Think smaller eh? /me thinks of a warehouse of Cybervision 64/3D cards which would nicely complement his A2000...

Actually they didn't even have the FF...the only
cool things about them were the SCSI and the
programmable DSP, but even if the DSP worked
there's no software (or documentation?) for it.
Cool for collectors, but "IMO" an original
Commodore 4000T would be a better find.

@Jose

The A3000+'s real boost was the DSP, which gave it Pentium 3-800Mhz level performance... in 1992.

Getting them was brain-powered negotiations.  
Getting into the position to negotiate for them is lucky :-)

-edit-
Hmmmmm...don't think so. The "planned" DSP (did
it even work?) was mainly for 16 bit audio
capability, and besides it was only a 50mhz
chip; there's no way it would have provided
P3 800mhz performance even with 10 of them.
Still cool machines though, don't get me wrong!:)

Softhut was selling a few of them a while
back, they may still have one if anyone's
interested.
