Just grabbed a CLEAN A1000
« on: July 19, 2009, 09:28:20 PM »
I still can't get over in what great condition this Amiga 1000 system I grabbed on eBay last week is.

Just loving it!

I'd keep it far away from the window before it turns yellow.  A1000s seem to like sunlight even less than vampires do.

Amiga 1000 was so advanced EA had a blue screen of death in 1985!

edit: and very nice a1000 you have there, one of mine sadly fails at the WOM stage :'(

That's awesome! Looks exactly like the A1000 I used to have, right down to the gray Amiga binder with the red stripe! :)
