A1000 needs home
« on: October 27, 2003, 06:28:19 PM »
A1000 and accessories available cheap ($20).  I will not ship, must pick up in Austin Texas area.   All of it will go in dumpster sometime in December.

No monitor.  Just the computer, and several accessories.  In original box.  Lots of software.  Approximate inventory:

1)  Amiga 1000 (works)
2)  external floppy drive (eject button needs to be replaced)
3)  "Mousetime" clock
4)  Midi interface
5)  External RAM (a small box that plugs directly into bus connector), I forget how much, something like 512K
6)  numerous applications, games, associated documentation
7)  miscl. Amiga books
8)  NEC P6 24-pin dot matrix printer (works)

reminds me of when I was given an Amiga1000 a couple of years ago. I was given an Amiga and monitor, floppy drive and shed load of disks, when I moved flat I had to give it all away for free. :-( sad story

Good to know. I was trying to figure out how I'd make the trip or find someone local.

Walt:
 whatever you do, if for some reason no one can pick it up, Don't throw it away...........just give it to a thrift store as a donation.........that way, sometime later , at least maybe a former Amiga user can see it and buy it there.
CD32 is actually the best Amiga ever made by Commodore!...

or if you are going to put it in a dumpster, please label clearly with neon light pointing to it, saying AMIGA 1000, wrapped in electrostatic foil, the wrapped in foam, then wrapped in electrostatic foil, then put a sign on it, EXPLOSIVE (NITROGLYCERINE) DO NOT TOUCH, and then no one will pick it up until we come along...  :-D

But seriously, don't  :-)
