Wtb: A4000d
« on: January 20, 2011, 09:33:26 PM »
Hi guys ad gals!  I'll be posting this over at Amibay as well, but I'd thought I'd start here.

I have a bit of foo money to spend on my miggy habit and am looking to get into an AGA machine.  After some good advice all around I've decided to go with the A4000D.  If you have one that you would like to sell, please think of me.

PROS:
1.  I am not a "collector" (NTTIAWWT! :) ).  I will use the computer as often as my A2000 (which currently is daily).
2.  I will try my best to keep whatever habits you have developed with it.  If you have read it Kierkegaard every night for the past few years, I will continue to do so, unless you are one of those Hegelian followers.... :lol:

Caveats:
I'd like to keep the price around 400ish including shipping.  This might exclude everyone and anyone, but unfortunately I am a Yank, and since my country's bankers have decided to tank the dollar I will have trouble affording the UK, Canadian, or Euro A4000Ds.  Base model is fine, although I'd like to have all its plasticky bits and input devices (not absolutely necessary, as I can get a 2000 to 4000 kbd adapter and plan on getting a cocolino anyway).  PAL vs NTSC is a non-issue as well, assuming that you can hold down the mouse buttons and pick what you want.  Keyboard in English a plus.

Anyways, thanks for reading this, and if you have an A4000D just laying about not putting in a fair days work, think of sending it my way!

Darren

EDIT:  4000/40 or 4000/30, not really picky about that either.

I have a 4000D that I might sell for $400.  Let me get it together and snap some pics for ya.  You could save S/H costs if you drove up to get it too.

Thanks TJ!  I have had another offer on Amibay as well.  If you could send me the particulars of whats inside and some pics of the battery area/etc that would be great!  I wasn't expecting there to be such a quick outpouring of support :lol:.

My A4000 has a simple jumper on the mobo to toggle between PAL and NTSC.  It was NTSC when I bought it and moving the jumper was my first act.  :)
A2000, A3000, 2 x A1200T, A1200, A4000Tower & Mediator, CD32, VIC-20, C64, C128, C128D, PET 8032, Minimig & ARM, C-One, FPGA Arcade... and AmigaOne X1000.

Alright- I pulled the trigger on a nice A4000Dcr on Amibay from Nathanieltolbert.  Thanks for all the offers, but I am no longer in need.
